Others have Blake & Lamb pans and double link chain. So I'm curious to know if they have been modified at some time, or are they original? Here's one of each, side by side. The smaller has the Victor pan, the larger has Blake & Lamb 4. This one has a 6" jaw spread. This one has a 7" jaw spread. I trap for fun. I skin 'em for the money!

The twin-loop chain on the B&L could be factory if it is a newer B&L, which were made by ATCo for B&L. This would be 1967 or newer. www.usedtraps.com Please check out my updated inventory of Native American books.
