I recently bought some traps.
The seller said they were #3 Northwoods. They like look #3 Bridgers.
So I started changing springs and find 3 traps have different chains then the others. The others say #3 NW.
Look at the pans and all I can read is a 4 and under that USA.
I can't read anything else.
Tried a steel brush and WD40. Can't read nothing else. There's no indentation on the top of the pan so maybe all it says is #4 and USA.
#3 has 6 1/2" outside spread and the #4 has 6 3/4" outside spread.
Any idea what they are?
Brad

Supposedly, Bridger bought all the old NW tooling and started cranking them out.
Every kid needs a Dog and a Curmudgeon.
Remember Bowe Bergdahl, the traitor.
Beware! Jill Pudlewski, Ron Oates and Keven Begesse are liars and thiefs!

I cleaned up the traps more and could read Montgomery on the bottom of the pan but it was very light.

We need a bat signal of sorts to bring these pressing questions to Nancy's attention lol.
I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

Jr. Samples, I needed to know what trap they were because the 4 coil kits didn't fit.

I get ya and I actually posted on the wrong thread lol, my bad. I just know that Nancy is a treasure trove of knowledge on traps, new and old. I sure hope you find what you need and forgive me for posting wrongly imissed.
