I want to give a try to reloading for a s&w 910,9mm.How do you fellows catch your brass when shooting the auto? A fellow at the range said I could get something to put on the auto to catch the brass as I shot,anyone know what it is called and where to get it? | ||

A friend of mine had a device that fitted on his (shooting) hand. It was basically a net bag with an opening. That way you don;t need a different one for each gun you have! Actually, for a 9mm I wouldn't bother as brass is readily found at any range you go to. peter. Be without fear in the face of your enemies. Be brave and upright, that God may love thee. Speak the truth always, even if it leads to your death. Safeguard the helpless and do no wrong; | |||

I'll echo owensby's interest... I was just out today and digging through the snow for empty casings isn't any kind of fun. I've seen them for HK rifles and AUGs but nothing for autos. Having a light catcher attached to your trigger hand wouldn't be a bad idea... | |||

What I came up with was kinda by chance. I bought my land owner a tool package that with it came a cupon for free 18v bat/opp saws all. Well normally I put down a large 10'x10' tarp at the range to catch my brass and make picking up only my brass easy. It dawnwd on my that a small light battery powered shop vac would be awesome for quickly picking up the brass on the tarp. I now own a 18v Ryobi cordless shop vac that makes brass reteival a utter snap. dont know how I ever got by without it. Oterwise I was spending 2-3x more time picking up brass than shooting. | |||

I built a brass catcher for my semi-autos using one old t-shirt and one wire clothes hangar. I bent the hangar so I could hold it tight to the grip of my pistol with my (right) shooting hand, leaving a large loop of wire standing above the ejection port. I shaped the loop so that all the brass would pass through the loop. Then I sewed a bag made from the t-shirt onto the loop. It has never worked 100% because I always have to leave some room between the bag and the slide so I can see the sights. But it does pretty well and does not interfere with gunhandling overmuch. But I am always fiddling with the wire, bending it to get a better fit. Another solution is to get a large cardboard refrigerator carton and fire from inside the box. Lost Sheep (Larry) | |||

Midway USA sells a brass catcher that attaches to your shooting hand. I have no idea how well it works. | |||

There are brass catchers available but it messes up the balance of any pistol you put it on. I prefer the tarp. Most pistols put their brass into the same area over & over. Put the tarp down & the pick up all oyur brass when you are done. LIFE IS NOT A SPECTATOR'S SPORT! | |||
