For those of you who know, what are the jaw spread dimensions for a 44 Blake & Lamb, a 48 Newhouse, and a 114 Newhouse?

Jaw spread is measured when the trap is in the set position. Measured on the inside of the jaws, loose jaw to the dog side.
The Blake & Lamb #44, both long spring and under spring have a jaw spread of 7 1/2".
The Newhouse #48 jaw spread is the same as the #4,14 and 44 at 6 1/2".
The Newhouse #114 has a jaw spread of 8", even though the jaw post to jaw post measurement is the same as the #4.
