Don't know why they just didn't leave the chain on the trap and connect the extra chain to the ring, unless they were addiment about having a larger ring on the end of the chain. Trapper mods and their reasoning are always interesting. "PURVEYOR OF FINE ANTIQUTIES and RARE TRAPS". Member... MTA/CFM/NTA/NRA/NATCA #0620

That cold shut could have been blacksmith made but that style has been around a long time and still available today...
