Anyone who runs a semi-auto on the trap or skeet field knows the drill: you get in a rhythm, then a hull bounces off your buddy in the next station or scatters across the ground where you have to go hunting for it later. The Carlsons Auto Catcher solves that with a simple all-steel design that stops empties from ejecting through the receiver opening and holds them right there for you to grab when you're ready. It works with most 12 and 20 gauge semi-auto shotguns, so it's a solid fit whether you're running a field gun or a dedicated clays setup.
Installation is refreshingly simple and requires no gunsmithing or drilling. It comes with two pieces of double-faced adhesive tape, so you peel and stick it right onto the receiver. The mounting is semi-permanent, meaning you can pull it off later if you decide to move it or take it off entirely. The tape is also softly padded, acting as a buffer between the steel plate and your gun so there's no movement or vibration that would scratch up the finish.
The wire ends on the Auto Catcher are adjustable, which is where a little tinkering pays off. You just open or close the ends of the wire to tune the fit for different shotshell loads and different guns, no modifications needed. If a hull slips through on the first shot, pinching the prongs a touch closer usually gets it catching consistently after that. Keep in mind this is the right-hand ejection version, built for standard right-hand shotguns.
For casual clays shooters, reloaders who want to save their brass and hulls, and anyone tired of chasing empties across the ground, this is a low-cost, no-fuss upgrade that keeps your station tidy and your focus on the next target.
It's designed to work with most 12 and 20 gauge semi-automatic shotguns that eject to the right. Because the wire ends are adjustable, you can tune the fit to your specific gun and load. Some very modern autos with unusual receiver profiles may take a little extra fiddling, so it's worth checking your model against the mounting area.
It mounts with two included pieces of double-faced adhesive tape, so there's no drilling or gunsmithing involved. The tape is softly padded and sits between the steel plate and your gun, which prevents movement and vibration that could scratch the finish. The adhesive is semi-permanent, so you can remove it later if you want to.
That's a common first-shot quirk, and the fix is simple. Just pinch the prongs on the wire ends a little closer together to tighten the catch, and it'll hold hulls consistently after that. The whole point of the adjustable wire is to dial it in for your particular load and shotgun.
This is the right-hand ejection model, built for standard right-hand semi-auto shotguns that throw empties out the right side of the receiver. If your gun ejects to the left, you'll want the left-hand version instead. Double-check your shotgun's ejection direction before ordering.
