Pioneer Trap

I have two Pioneer #2 coil springs in very good shape.
Clean, readable pans.
Do they have any collector value or should I use them?
Can you give me some background on Pioneer traps?

Also, I have two Montgomery #2 Step-In, coil springs.
Great shape, strong springs. Clean, readable pans. I don't think they had much use.
A friend wants to buy them and I want to sell.
What's a fair asking price?

Thank you.

Pioneer traps made on Taiwan from 1979 to 1981 for a company based in Portland, Oregon.

The early models could be either a dog on or dog less model, interchangeable. The later models had a humped cross piece like Victor traps.

Collector value is minimal, maybe $15.00 at the most on the early model in super good condition.

Montgomery value would be $9.00 to $12.00, depending the jaws and the height of the levers.

And contrary to popular belief, Pioneer made conibears in 110, 120, 220 and 330 also.

Thank you.

My Pioneer traps do look like Victors #2's with dog on.
Pan clearly marked TAIWAN. Portland, Oregon.

Thanks again, you folks are a wealth of knowledge.
