I really loved the caption under one of their pictures toward the bottom: "Fits stylishly on your pistol." - About as stylish as a giant afro wig on a bald 80 year old white man!

On a serious note, I think it would be terribly distracting to have that cage on the side of my gun and not too great for side to side balance either.

 

You trolling us, bro?

 

OMG how much stuff can you hang on that little gun.
Just stick your gun hand in a net bag and shoot thru it (JOKING) to catch your brass.
Perhaps a mosquito netting tent with a gunport. Then just roll up tent brass and all, done deal.
Allen Bundy where you at when we need ya?
Lookin around for hidden camera...

Y'all are making this too difficult. You just hang a wire frame on the right side of the pistol and then mount sticky mouse traps on the wire frame.

 

Seriously !!

 

Nope. 😑

 

I just bought a net thing to lay on the ground from harbor freight. Works for me, but I can shoot at home.
Now, I just need ammo.

 

I’m still waiting on the adjustable spring kit, that will land the empties into an open cartridge box. Open side up, pre sorted.

 

Here's the best one made: Ultimate Brass Catchers

 

I have to laugh off of all the "doo-hickeys" hanging off of pistols to catch brass. Why?

If you need a item to collect your brass, this is a better option. Plus the girl is better to look at.

The video showed the shooter couldn't even get a proper grip. I collect my spent brass and this gismo would be the last thing I'd use. The brass collector tarp works better. I'm actually surprised how many brass catching devices there are available. Before I bought one new, I'd look around garage sales - there's bound to be some there because they look good initially, but like most gimmicks, they end up as surplus.

 

I don't think the Akuna would work with a laser:

I was thinking the same thing...Not going to work with my Lima. Seems like it would be a distraction.

 

OP said indoor range. If it hits the floor there, it's probably considered the property of the range. That's the case at all the ones I've been to anyway. I don't like the policy, but it's their business and they can set it any way they choose.

 

Good point, I did miss that.
Having said that most indoor ranges I have been to have no issue with me collecting my own brass as long as it is behind the line in my own station. If you ask them nicely if you are able to do this, then most "reasonable" ranges will let you. (Your mileage may vary)
To paraphrase one of the RO's "Less work for me. I 'd rather not sweep up brass all day."

 

Or outdoor. A lot seem to bounce off the station's walls and into the grass.
Just thinking about ways to make it easier. Seems to be more common for ARs.

edit: Of course, there are revolvers.

 

I like to use a pillow case with the gun in it. It makes me feel like a mafia hit man.

 

No way Jose

 

Are you sure? That would look mighty handsome duct taped to that new BUL. Im just sayin...

 

No thank you.

 

Uh, I don't know what to say. Even someone considering one gives me pause. WHY!?

 

That's because you aren't seeing the big picture. Now just close your eyes and envision this contraption attached to your 365 nicely hidden in your IWB holster! There - change your mind? 👿

 

One thing I will say about my Sig 1911, using my reloads, the brass lands about a foot to my right. My least expensive 1911 is a RIA "Rock". The extractor in that gun isn't worth tuning and needs to be replaced. The Rock will throw brass all over the place, so a stand-alone brass catching net might be nice.

 

lol

 

i found OutDoorBom pistol brass catcher for my sig P322. it works well for me

 

Just spend the money on a good load of pea size gravel for your back yard pistol range.

 

I am guessing most of us do not live where we can shoot in our back yards.

 

You would use it only at the range if you reload your own OR if you were a criminal to make sure you don't leave brass with your fingerprints on them.

 

Don’t reload, nor am I a criminal. Have a small pistol range at home and always police my brass. Typically put a tarp down to catch it all, scoop it up and throw it in 5gal buckets. Don’t want the mower throwing brass everywhere.

 

Fair enough. I was not implying you were a criminal. My apologies.

 

I made one out of window screen (plastic). I measure how high I held the gun from the bench and took a stick of 1/2” PVC, some 90° elbows and glued a “base” together, everything else I sanded the ends so they would slide together easier. The screen I made into a bag so all of it fit in it, everything hit the screen and either stays on the table or just under it.

 

The ground works excellent. Catches 100% of my spent brass.

Then pick up with one of these: Ammo-Up: Pick Up Brass

I had never seen the small broomstick model. That’s pretty cool.
