Brass catcher

[yotehunter243]

I bought a couple brass catchers a few years ago off here and can't remember who made them. Can anyone help me out?

Look in the custon hunting accessories forum.

Thanks I thought it was Reb but wasn't sure

 

[reb8600]

I still have them.

I have two that Rebb made for me a while back. Great fella to deal with and work like a charm! Thanks again Rebb!

Any idea if these will work on a crosshill XSR side charge upper? Thanks... Dan

I have several side chargers and they all have rebs catchers on them

 

[Field Medic]

Yep. I have one on a side charging upper as well. Works as advertised!

Even on a slick side charging upper without the dust cover to hold onto reb's brass catcher? I just swapped one of my forged uppers to a Gibbz Arms (same as NFA/Joebob's) and didn't think it would work...great news if it does!

Dust cover doesn't matter. It attaches around your optic.

You are correct that the door is not necessary, but it does help to keep the catcher better positioned, especially when empty.

Since my 243WSSM has no door, and the heavier case exits rather vigorously, the catcher would occasionally flip up just enough to miss the first round.

I resolved that problem with a short piece of elastic, fastened to front lower corner of the catcher with a safety pin. Catcher has been 100% since that minor fix. Catcher worked flawlessly without the alteration on my 223's; wouldn't hunt without one.






Edit to add: An added benefit to the brass catcher on "doorless" AR's, is they work great to keep leaves & dirt out of action. I hunt in a very dusty environment and often wade through some fairly heavy brush which can collect on bolt carrier w/o the door.
