I like the looks of the trap but before I buy I need to know what the measurement of the set trap is. I live in Pa. and traps here can't be over 6 1/2 inches wide measured across the dog. The measurement has to be outside to outside of the jaw. I realize these traps are dogless but that is where the measurement is described in the regulation. I guess in these traps you would measure across where the pan connects with the jaw. Thank you folks.
