Hi folks:

First time here and a newbie to this world of airguns. Just wanted to check in what you all use or think would make a good BB catcher - whether it's a DIY, or a commercial product such as this:

Thanks

Rubber mate container with several folds of carpet. With a thick cutting board on the back.

Then just cut a hole for for BB to pass thru. And place a target over.

Can find everything at a dollar store.

As an alternate to carpet, you can also fill it with rubber mulch available at any home improvement store - makes things allot easier to retrieve the bbs for recycle or reuse.

Cheers!

best one I have is empty pizza box with rags inside, bb will penetrate front and get stop inside with the rags, this is the best surface area to shoot bb bec of the insistency of the bb and you avoid the ricochet of the bb because of the cardboard box w, 2nd thing is I collect the bb's with a magnet which make is so easy to collect.

I use a old 10' inch film reel can with duckseal (a sticky putty) that I pack 3/4 of an inch thick. it will stop my pal pellet gun. I just stick targets to front of it and shoot away. works great. NO MESS, QUITE, No ricochets. last forever. any container with lid should work. Might have trouble at store finding it everyone has a different name for it. look in elect. section for it.Hope this helps.new here too. people are friendly and very helpful welcoming. :drinkers:
