At a convention I bought one each, a CDR, a MB750, a CDR, and a Bridger #5 DLS.

I ended up ordering more CDRs and will probably be needin more Bridger 5 DLS

I'm looking forward to trying the Duke 850's that will be available later this year. I wouldn't buy others yet until I see how they stack up.

WCS is the new name for CDR.

I'm thinking the lock up Is the problem. A large higher jaw configuration and typically short spring levers would cause poor lock up. But I don't have a trap to look at so I can't be sure If that's the problem.

I never had a problem not catching.I didn’t like the way the dogless pan hooked on the rounded jaw.The pan had to much travel for my liking and by the time I fixed it I found other traps more to my liking.CDR-7.5 and MB750.The juries still out between those two but I have my hands full so not buying anymore anytime soon.

Do you know if both jaws will be held down on the Dukes like they are on the MB-750s Jayme?
