After spending 10 minutes the last time I took the M1 to the range chasing brass and guessing if it was mine or range pickups etc., I have decided to buy a brass catcher. I have a home made one with a net suspended on a PVC frame. First, it still needs refinement. Second, the M1 also ejects the brass in the vertical direction.
Therefore, I have decided to buy a plastic brass catcher that snaps onto the M1. The brass catcher is seen here http://www.deltaforce.com/catalog/ar15tacticalaccessories.html or here http://www.brasscatchers.com/pics/133.jpg .
My first question is, "Does anyone else own or have you used this particular type of brass catcher on a gun? AR-15 bags that attach to the carrying handle do not count. I am interested in the plastic snap on type."
My second question is, "What happens to the en bloc clip on the eighth shot? Does it eject through some kind of opening in the top of the plastic carrier? Or does it hang up the mechanism?"
My last question is, "Can I load the rifle with an en bloc clip with the plastic brass catcher attached to the rifle?"
