I’m a big fan of Victor traps. The #3 is their version of forged offset, the 2 is a standard jaw. I baseplated mine with 1/8” bases, and added new pans and MB chain with JC Conner swivels.

Absolutely a bit tweaked. A few twists with the pliers straightened them out. Like I said, the MB550s I own are definitely superior. But I'll run these half dozen I bought and see what I think at the end of the year.

Like skunktrapper said, the forged are just as easy to laminate as any other trap. I've laminated piles of them.

You already have a forged jaw why laminate.
I only ever laminated when I tapped for the live market other then that I see no need for IOl.
