Haven't seen many 44's. Is the difference in spring size? Any input is appreciated.
Thanks in advance

The only difference is the chain and number on the pan. The 44 was mainly sold to government agencies or states. They had a more heavy duty chain and swivel set up.

Isn’t the chain on a 44 attached to the bottom piece and the chain on a 4 attached to the spring?

Couple of 44 pics. As stated the chain is heavier than a #4 and the attachment point is on the base.

Deerhunter51s two different #44 traps exhibit two different swivel and attachment links often found on Newhouse 44s. The trap on the left in his first photo and in his second photo has a Kenwood base link and swivel while the trap on the right in his first photo and in his third photo has the base link, swivel and cold shut found on traps produced later.
