Diceman Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 I've seen the stick type magnetic pickups for cartridges but have been told of a larger electromagnet version that looks like a metal detector with an on off switch that picks up hundreds at a time. Does anyone know where I can get one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloke Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 (edited) Hi Bloke Have you used this yet - would be interested to hear your opinion on it. Thanks I am disabled, so bending to pick up the odd stray cartridge/case I drop can be difficult sometimes. I couldn't shoot yesterday, but went up to the club anyway. I used it to pick up four empty cartridge cases at once - no real problem. It is only pocket size but the magnet is bigger than the old magnetic pick up you could get in the past - about 2 cm across. i think you would need a bigger one if you were using it to pick up large amounts, but useful though, for £3. (but keep it away from your bank cards - or they could be blank cards!) Edited February 26, 2010 by Bloke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
