I have started "collecting" user montys in all different sizes and was wondering if they ever made a 1.75 sized trap? I have seen some mention of them but nothing definitive.

Not unless they did a prototype that was never put into production.

They went right from 1.5 to the 2 because of coyotes. It was almost the same size of Victor #2 round jaw(I think).

The heavier jaws and stiffer springs on both of the 1.5 and 2 were enough to hold a coyote.

I think the OLD Montgomery, Mahaffey, Pa. did not but Terry Montgomery from Ogden, Utah who bought out the old North woods line of traps that became Bridger traps did make a round jaw 1.75 coil.

The montgomery (mti) round jaws were made from round stock that was flattened.
