Anyone know when they are going to start manufacturing again? I'm curious to see what improvements they do


If traps work like the Antis say......I would have no fingers.

A select few models of the SC DLS trap line will be the first to be manufactured

It will be many months down the line as all machinery is still in WV

Sleepy Creeks body grip setters also set their DLS traps. You'll need setters for those 4 1/2's.

Allen at Hilltop/Funkes makes them Sleepy Creek setters now, along with some of their other products. ... in case you weren't aware.

I have about all of the setters and these are hands down way better than all the rest, IMHO.

I am unfamiliar with those type setters. What holds the one compressed lever down?

You still put a U clip on it and then compress the other spring. Just a lot easier to compress the springs with this to me. Way better than the Sleepy Creek setters.
