Abstract
A device for receiving and collecting spent shells ejected from a firearm having an spent shell ejection port. The invention comprises a hollow conduit which is shaped analogous to and surrounding the natural ejection path of the shell casings when mounted at the ejection port of the firearm by fastening clips. The ejected empty shells are collected in a receiving container attached to a flexible tubing which is attached to the conduit. An extension device for the cocking handle of the firearm may be required which improves handling of the weapon when the spent shell collector is installed.
