TacStar Universal Brass Catcher

Great product. Works excellent when mounted to my AR. Good construction, very good material used.

It's practical and efective in collecting empty shells

Works as intended and no complaints at all. Holds about 50 casings and then you may start getting bounce back jams. At 60 casings its full. Works great for it's intended purpose, and if you are shooting more than 60 rounds per series well you may need to adjust your training regime.

Just back from the range and found that this brass catcher worked perfectly with my Ruger 10/22 rifle. Caught all the brass. Would recommend, as .22 brass is hard to pick up at most outdoor shooting ranges.

The real problem with this version of the Tacstar (the other picatinny mount looks larger) is it's too small to be reliable, product photos make it look larger than it is. What I mean by that is when used on .223 or even worse a large frame AR, there isn't enough room for the spent cases to come out and fall down. As a result they end up bouncing back into the path of the bolt and creating a jam. It's not deep enough and only border line wide enough to allow ejection and reliable operation. If the brass holder itself was the same size as their picatinny mount version it would probably be the best thing going in brass catchers.It does work really nice on 22LR's and 9mm AR's and it is small and compact for that use. On 223 or large frame AR's SCAR's etc. it's too small and causes jams.
