auminesweeper Posted September 18, 2017 Author Share Posted September 18, 2017 They have one heck of a spring on them, I don't know why they made em so powerful I don't take that much to kill critters. J. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim in Idaho Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Last winter, I was exploring the McCullough Range in southern Nevada, and found a double spring # 3 Victor trap. Probably set for coyotes back when they still allowed grazing in there. It was on the edge of a drywash, and probably drug there by the critter. Still had the stake and chain attached. It was on top of the ground, so I didn't have to worry about getting "bit"..LOL It still works, too. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auminesweeper Posted September 18, 2017 Author Share Posted September 18, 2017 I would hate to get caught in one of those ones with the big teeth on it that are about 2 foot across, So far Jim I have not come across any of them, J. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredmason Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 if you ever find a real bear trap you will likely get a good price for it... fred 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim in Idaho Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 John, that trap Kiwi showed, and the one I found are leghold traps. They're not designed to kill, they're designed to close on the leg, and as the leg is pulled up, they're made to grab whatever they can...usually toes. What Fred said is the truth. I'd love to find one of those old grizzly bear traps, with the big teeth. That would be worth some bucks. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
