Have you considered used traps? Victor and Blake & Lamb both made good # 3 double longs. And then there are always Newhouse.......

Please check out my updated inventory of Native American books.

Try Sterling Fur.I've seen them listed in his used trap section.You'll probably have to call him,his online catalog doesn't list the current used trap inventory

Longspring traps are my favorite. I’ve found several on the trap shed. I just put together a few of these this week! Bridger 4’s with twist link #3 chain connected to a saber tooth drag. Pretty nice set up

I’ve got over 100 Blake and Lamb #3DLS. They are modified with PIT pan system, 3/16" outside laminated, base plated and center swiveled. I’ll sell them if you’re interested. If you are interested, post your contact info and I’ll call you.

If you want #3 longsprings,those modified B+L's are about as good as you will get.
