SWS Brass Deflector Gen 2

[SimpleWeaponSolutions]

Simple Weapon Solutions M&P 15-22 Brass Deflector Gen 2 is now available.

The 15-22 ejects the brass straight out to the right. If you are a left handed shooter, like me, the brass often ejects into your right arm. With the brass deflector most of the brass will drop straight down into a nice pile.

The brass deflector can also be useful to right handed shooters as it will keep the brass from bouncing off lane dividers and landing back onto you, or hitting shooters in the lanes next to you.

The Brass Deflector is designed to work with most optics that are mounted to the top rail above the ejection port. However with the wide variety of optics and mounts that are available, the Brass Deflector may not work with your setup.


The Brass Deflector Kit comes with

• 1 Picatinny Mount
• 1 Shield
• 1 Nylon Tip Set Screw
• 2 Button Head Screws
• 1 1/8 Hex L Key
• 1 3/32 Hex L Key

Retail Price $40.00 + $2.00 S&H (No International Shipping)

It is highly recommended that you use medium strength thread locker, such as 242 Blue Loctite. Only a small amount is needed to keep the screws from backing out during firing. Do not over tighten the nylon tip set screw, as you can cause damage to your rail. Run the screw down until it touches the rail and then tighten 1/8 - 1/4 turn.

This brass deflector is designed to work only with the Smith and Wesson M&P 15-22 and will not work with .223 / 5.56 AR15 rifles.

If you are a current customer and are having issues with the Gen 1 Brass Deflector, please email [email protected]

There will not be any further refinement to the brass deflector, the Gen 2 is the final design.

It has been a pleasure and a treat to be one of the field testers helping to bring this product to market. Outstanding product, Jonathan!

Not to mention giving me more excuses to go shooting.

Now that it is solid, how does it impact your ability to visually check the chamber?

Same here, and agreed! Got my new one in the mail today!

I love the cottage industry that's grown around custom parts for the 15-22!

As a lefty, I am intrigued by this product, esp for range/stall use - but I also have concerns about a visual chamber check?

I've got a set of these chamber flags from Midway and was able to wiggle one in under the older version of the brass deflector. I'll give it a try when my V2 gets here in the next few days.

To give you an idea of the length, they're long enough that I've used one once or twice down the barrel of my M&P 22 pistol to push out a stuck casing.

You can do it, it's just not as quick and easy.

Me, too! I had fun testing the different designs.

It is a bit more difficult to do a visual check on the chamber. I went out this morning to see if I could locate some chamber flags, but I had no luck. Hopefully CharlesWA will be able to verify if those chamber flags work with the new brass deflector.

Thank you! I greatly appreciate the testers for help me to find a solution.

And to all of my customers that had the bounce back issue with the Gen 1 Brass Deflector, thank you for your patience and understanding while I worked to find a better solution.

In case no one has noticed, there has been a minor change in the rail mount. Previously, the locking screw was located under the mounting tongue of the deflector. One had to install the mount and then the deflector. Now, the mounting screw is in a location that negates this and the deflector comes completely pre-assembled.

Nice work, Jonathan!

One could make the deflector out of clear polymer if you need to see the chamber.

 

[RedNeck Jim]

if you need to see the chamber.

If? I thought checking the chamber was an integral component of gun safety. At least it is for me.

I have the initial model. Curious from you guys already using the latest gen, how this impacts clearing jams? Can you see in there & can you get in there to clear the jam?

 

[Majorlk]

Jim, I just drop the mag and cycle the bolt to clear a jam. The only thing I can't clear that way is a case stuck in the chamber and a rod down the barrel takes care of that.

And yes, if I turn the rifle upside down, I can see into the chamber. If worse comes to worse, it takes less than 20 seconds to remove it completely.

Yep, had that exact thing happened yesterday when shooting my Buck Mark. I had to clear it with a cleaning rod.

You mean looking thru the mag well? My shooting technique is to always turn the gun over sideways to verify the chamber after finishing off a magazine. You sure wouldn't want to attempt to chamber a new round if the barrel was obstructed. I don't count rounds while shooting, so the only way I know I have an empty mag, as opposed to some failure, it to glance at the chamber.

I guess I assumed everyone did a chamber check.

 

[Majorlk]

No, I don't mean through the mag well. I can see into the chamber looking "underneath" the deflector. I know the mag is empty when the bolt locks back. And I DO count shots.

Thanks. That is what I was hoping for.

And I DO count shots.

Interesting. That could be a thread unto itself.

It's a subconscious thing. I also count steps going up or down stairs, steps when I walking for exercise, I pay attention to mile-markers ...

I know, I'm a little weird, but you already know that.

In terms of seeing into the chamber, the slotted version(s) were the best, but cases would catch on the slots and bounce back into the chamber ... malfunction junction.
