AR Folding Brass Catcher by AlbertP

Last crawled date: 3 years ago

Update: The brass catcher has been dramatically improved to be much stronger. I tested it with a full bag of brass and shook my ar and the hinge did not break (printed in PETG). You will need to reprint all pieces. I used velcro on my bag to easily take off the bag from the catcher if needed.
This is a folding brass catcher I made for my ar-15 to easily catch brass but also fold out of the way so you can access the chamber quickly.
You will need to sew a custom bag with a zipper (ask your wife) and attach it to the main body. I made mine with old jeans.
See pictures.
