need brass deflector for the left handed wife

[texas30cal]

Any reason this wont work on her .308? Its a slick side upper and the other day she got a perfect 5 ring brand that looks just like the Olympic rings, I was told to fix the problem! http://www.brownells.com/shooting-accessories/range-gear/shell-catchers-deflectors/a3-brass-deflector-sku100001134-18554-42068.aspx?cm_mmc=cse-_-Itwine-_-shopping-_-Brass%20Deflector&gdftrk=gdfV21820_a_7c187_a_7c1021_a_7c100001134_d_100001133_d_10103

I'm a lefty,but the shell deflector helps in pushing brass forward and out.That deflector knocks the case down but not sure about the pull back.All you can do is try it.Maybe a brass catcher might work a little better.A happy wife is a happy life brother. <dontknow>

Any recommendations for a quality brass catcher?

http://www.brasscatchers.com/store/brasscatcher.html  , Caldwell had an improver version with more of a rigid hood on the side of the ejection port.Can't seem to find the site where I got mine but it's like the first one but in material.The first oner looks interesting.https://www.combatvtactical.com/BRASS_CATCHER.html  found it.This is what I have.Took some time getting it it's a mom,pop business and they make as ordered.I love it.It's a pain digging brass out of the snow and ice.

What brand rifle ? An upper receiver with a brass deflector would take care of the problem , if you choose to replace it . Some 308AR uppers are hard to come by lately.

 

Shooting lefty with a brass catcher , sucks ,in some shooting positions.

Its a homebuild, waiting for a TM upper to get made, they said that it would be in the first quarter and I see all of the ar 15 uppers are showing in stock so I hope 308 is next, I thought about machining a deflector like one that is forged as part of the receiver and bolting it on from the inside also. I like the CVT brass catcher the best I think, will see what she wants to try. :binkybaby:

That is the one I was looking at, good reviews, quality seems good, may get it the next time I order anyway, its cheap enough.
