The ultimate brass recovery device is a revolver. If you are into speed reloads, one with full moon clips. Uniquetek has a telescopic hook to pick them up and recover your cases six at a time.

I can neither confirm nor deny the rumor that ALLEGEDLY an agency I MIGHT have shot with in the past MAY have ALLEGEDLY paid the local HS and Community College cheerleaders to pick up brass at the end of range days. Allegedly.I thought this was why people brought their kids to the range.
But I wasn't there. Ever.
Well, at least now I've figured out what agency you work for...

There's nothing civil about this war.
I also use the Dillon wire cage on a stick tool. Works great on our pistol bays which are crush and run packed gravel. I first bought a similar tool from a hardware store designed to pick up nuts but it will not reliably pick up brass - so watch which version you buy. Agree on comment that collapsing handle would be very nice. I keep a 5 gallon bucket with the "tool" in the garage - when I go to the range - I take the bucket to put the brass in. When the bucket gets heavy, I have a brass sorting event. Luckily for me, several of my shooting buddies buy 9mm brass cased in volume and leave their brass so I "paid" for this Dillon brass tool in a few trips.
I just do it the #PoorFag (as per LL) way and pick it up with my hands.
That's disgusting.

Overkill for the individual. The ones I've used haven't worked so great.

"When the phone rang, Parker was in the garage, killing a man."
The most effective tool I've found is a large group of cadets or recruits. Followed closely by small contingents of interns or inmates. The inmates are usually better workers.
Those lawnmower types aren't worth a crap on grass. They worn ok on pavement. I've heard good things about the pecan pickerupper-style ones but haven't used them myself (except on pecans).

I need one of these. Worst thing about a Glock is the brass pickup. It's a ten yard circle of pieces sprinkled intermittently throughout. I dreaded picking it up today.
