Works well for what it is. I’m using it on a 91/30 which do to the bolt design the capture bag when in position covers the bolt handle, other types of bolt designs where the arm is at the back instead of the middle would not be a problem. With the Mosin Nagant the casing catcher needs to be pushed forward to clear the bolt handle. Once twisted with the handle straight upright the catcher can be closed then the bolt pulled back for the ejection of the spent case. Then the catcher is moved to its forward position so the bolt can be pick up the next round and rotated to the cocked position. While all of this works it is clumsy and slow but within this context I cannot fault the catcher either functionally nor for quality. To have this function automatically would take the development of an operating mechanism, I understood this going in and wanted to use this product to see if developing such a mechanism was a practical pursuit. I’m still cogitating on the “practical” part of that. R Humphrey SeattleRead full review

I attached this swing open brass catcher to my cz912 auto shotgun. It also catches ejected shot shells one on singles and two on doubles on the skeet field and catches them on the trap field. It does not affect my sight picture, interfere with the gun action nor does it affect the balance of the gun. No more picking up shells between stations! After the shot , just flip the cage open, remove the spent shells reload and close the cage..sort of like what one would do with a overunder shotgun. Around the club or between stations the catcher can remain open along with the action to show that the gun is safe. The Caldwell company should consider this use too in its marketing, for effective shell catchers that work for doubles too have been the Holy Grail for those who use auto shotguns on the skeet field.Read full review

Reasonably priced,adaptable to more than one firearm and access to breach without having to remove from mounting position. Also the large capacity bag is definitely a plus.

Haven't tried it yet but I like my old single strap, non hinged model so I am sure this one will be better.

As a reloader I try to retrieve all of my brass and this makes it much easier than trying to pick it up off the ground/floor. It works on several of my guns too.
