I don't know if this has been written about in past post but I bought a brass catcher from a company called Graco and it works wonderful! Elastic slips over palm of my shooting hand and catches the brass. It didn't miss a one. Only quick way to keep up with fired brass.

I think I would just rather buy a revolver, than to have a fish net strapped to my hand.

Love my P64. I have revolvers.

I think there is a thread on here where someone had some success with a home made one they posted last year.

I've seen these used, and they both work well.

The net thing, although it might get near %100 of the brass, it just is not feasible for real world tactical training. You should train (practice) the way you fight. In a home invasion, or self defense situation you are not going to bother with a net. At the range just collect it up afterward.

As I'll be shooting Russian Silver Bear, the steel casings aren't worth saving.
But if the range is crowded I don't want to be ejecting shells at my neighbors.
No sure how bad the P-64 is, but the CZ-82 is nortorious for beaning people with casings.

For 20 bucks ..... Go to a tropical fish store and buy a fish net for 6 bucks and bent to shape ......

Here is the one I made...

It works pretty good. It gets tricky dealing with different handguns because they all seem to eject differently. You usually just have to bend the hoop a little and it'll catch most all the brass then. Cheap to make and takes about 10 minutes or so.
