ABSTRACT:
The device comprises a support (4, 8, 9) fastened by gripping to engagement surfaces (14, 15) of a weapon (1) to which there is attached, by articulation around a hinge (5), a container (6) which in a swung-down bottom position covers the loading handle (2) and the window (3) for the ejection of the cases of the cartridges fired. The container (6) has an inner case-retention wall (13, 17) rising up to the window (3). A system for the immobilizing of the container (6) by ratchet (10, 11, 12) in three positions (18, 19, 20) makes it possible temporarily to maintain the container in a bottom position (18) in order to collect the cases (21), in an intermediate position (19) in order to permit the handling of the loading handle (2) and possibly of the members concealed in the bottom position without losing the cases collected, and in a top position (20) in order to recover the cases collected, which fall by gravity, and in order to permit easy inspection of the cartridge chamber.
