I renewed my membership in the 330 club last week! Did a beaver job for the local municipalities and was cleaning up my gear at home. One of my Belisle's was full of weeds and I had to set it to get it cleaned up. I really like their safety's but must not have gotten the one on all the way. I grabbed both sides to open up the jaws it went off catching me by both hands! I really love my Belisle's but not then! Stood there trying to figure out a way to get one hand out is bad enough, but how do I get two out? Fortunately only one spring went off and I managed to slide one hand out. I used my one handed setters to relieve the other spring enough to escape. Makes one respect them 330's!
Had the exact same thing happen to me, taking the dog off and one spring closed. Both thumbs in the belisle 330. I am not sure how it happened but it was quick.
Had a guy with me and talked him through getting the trap setter from the bag and compressing the spring. It did not hurt that much in the trap but could not get my hands free. Was expecting the delayed pain/shock once my thumbs where removed but was not that bad. The trap that got me was still wired off, now when I am removing my traps I remove the anchor system than deal with the trap. At least that why I can do the walk of shame. will say it has not happened again and the Belisle 160 that pinched me hurt a lot more!
