Pretty sure it is a Triumph base with a Herter's pan. I also feel like the jaws are not original either. When opened, the jaws seem to be too wide and are "wedged" in. What else can I tell the guy?? is the chain original (sorry not a good picture of the chain)? and what about the toothed/serrated double jaw portion? I am only the most amature collector and not sure I have seen those jaws before. Thanks for any info. Last edited by Weez; 08/15/22 02:02 PM. God put me at the top of the food chain....I just put a trap on the other end!

I looked all over the internet and could not find a picture of a trap that looked like that until you called it by name! I’m an embarrassed amateur, but very happy that enlightened me. Thank you!
