Hey guys. Was talkin to a guy at our local trappers meeting last night. He claims to have two number 5 newhouse bear traps. Condition unknown. What would one be worth?

Thanks!

Hutch

Need pics to see what condition they are in and if they have all original parts.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Hutchy, make sure to check the spring stampings for Canadian stamping.

If there is no writing on the pan and someone riveted the teeth to the jaws then they are not worth much but I would still give ya more than scrap price. But if the swivel is in the middle of the chain then the deals off.
