1 1/2 victor jump with teeth

Picked up some more traps yesterday and in the pile was a victor 1 1/2 jump with teeth
Pan has "made in Canada" stamped on bottom.
its not like the old cast jaws with teeth on the #12,#13 & #14
this trap has a steel band of teeth welded 3 places on the free jaw.
guessing teeth are trapper weld on mod?
if they are they where well done.

teeth factory on not?

Teeth are trapper modified.IMO

Some of the victor TWO TRIGGER traps came with factory teeth like that but I think they were a #1 size. In my opinion if that is a factory 1 1/2 with teeth it is pretty rare.

I remember the old F.C. Taylor trapping supply catalog used to sell those add-on jaws. As I recall they were crimp on, but I suppose some guys tack welded them on. The catalog I saw them in was the 1969 edition.
