Tools for picking up brass.

[Pete F]

I bought a heavy duty painters tarp for around $20. It doesn't melt like the plastic tarps. I just roll it up when done and dump the cases out at home. I have been looking at the brass catchers they have been selling that mount on a tripod. The worst review that I saw said that it didn't work for semi auto pistols that tend to spit shells out in every direction. I think that I could make one for much less money. I have one that mounts on my ARs, but rarely use it except in gravel pits.

Well since that is called a pooper scooper by most dog people
I think it would have to be called pooper dooty as against impooper dooty!


We're having way too much Scatological fun here!

I've got a large sized canvas tarp I've had forever but didn't want to drag it around shooting (too heavy). I got two more HD tarps for Christmas so now I'm going to see if it's worth cutting into a useable brass tarp.

I gave both my Caldwell AR brass catchers away too.

How about brass in the mud? Any ideas? Looking over the thread, tarp looks like the easiest,,,

If you don't have a tarp a yard rake is a worthy tool.

I'm a brass hound and I generally carry a small extendable rake, two 36" Dollar store grippers, plastic trash bags, ear muffs & knee pads in my bucket. It works when i go shooting to.
