Here is a photo of my steer horn clamps. They came in both the wide base and narrow base to accommodate the different sized widths of the early Newhouse bear traps. Mine are all the wider versions. The third #6 clamp from the left, if you look close, was a narrow version but had been converted over most likely at the factory. Greg

Fishguts, Not so much deep pockets, but a love for traps and related items. I've been doing this for about 35 years and have saved to buy this stuff. Greg

sweet! I didn't know they made one for a 4! I found the u clamp in the box of traps the #5 and clamp was in, figure it must be used to hold one spring wile you clamp the other. I will keep it clamped under the clamp so I don't loose it.

Awesome collection! Does anyone know who makes the clamp currently available? They sell them on ebay for around 50-60 bucks...


I love Mustelids...
