My opinion is they are crap!  I have a half dozen, had no idea how to base plate them because of the goofy stamped metal frame, so I didn't. I tried to set two this weekend, without even stepping on them, using my hands to open the jaws, the frame bent like a bannana! I tried to straighted them, & the jaws popped out. I am going to only used these for coon, even though they might be a bit big for them. I would not trust these to a k-9! -T- |

The new Bridger 1-3/4 is the cat's meow for that sized trap.

With what the Bridger 1-3/4 has got to offer on them, you can't beat the price.

That is bad if you can bend it just by setting them |

Just over the weekend I caught coons and otter in the bridger 1.75. It comes base plated and with heavy chain already. All I did was add another swivel. I really like it.
