hello,

i want to show you two big german traps from my collection. once the number 125 with a long spring and the number 125b with a short spring. the traps were built by the company e.grell & co in haynau. they are over a hundred years old. the traps were exported (africa ...) and used there for lions, leopards, panthers etc. I hope you like them;-)

Best wishes!

Guess those big cats are easy to catch. Set the trap between the front and rear legs of your bait. Probably like a bobcat or a lynx wont fight the trap much, after being caught.

Hello everybody
here is a german gooseneck. best spring steel to catch fox, badger and raccoon. the iron reacts to the train and grabs its prey by the neck. strap width 58 cm.

Best wishes!

it continues friends,

the biggest and strongest german trap. built in wittichenau. the feathers are very strong. the body weight does not push you down 1 cm. a moving iron and two safety bolts are required. she breaks a huge beef bone in two. built for grizzli alaska bears weighing up to 800 kg. I hope you like it.

regards!

the old traps were made around 1900. this is a new production and a one-off.
