I have a chance to pickup about 20 victor 3N traps. 10 are cast jaws and 10 are steel jaw. Trap are in excellent condition with correct chains.
No government stamps on any. Any ideas on the value of these? Thanks

I've been seeing cast jaw 3Ns selling for around the $20 mark so long as they are in good shape with stout springs. I can't comment on the steel jaws, haven't seen any for sale.

i think all 3N's are cast. the others would be regular 3's.

There is a 3N R (regular jaw) made to be used with early clamp on-rubber jaw inserts. The clamp-on rubber would not fit over the malleable jaws, so they made some regular hook-ins that fit the 3N frame. These traps had same chain & links as a 3N M (malleable jaw). I have several 3N Rs that were used in field tests by ATCo.

interesting. ive never heard of those. so are the jaws stamped with holes or some other way to mount the jaw pads?
