S. Newhouse #5 Kenwood Bear Trap - 07/06/19 10:56 AM
Hello,
I'm new to the forum and hoping for help with a question. I have an S.Newhouse #5 Kenwood bear trap that has a bolt through the cross below the pan on the tapered end (see photo). It appears to be period correct with a square head bolt and nut. I have not come across a photo of any others with this modification. Would anyone out there know it's purpose? Is it a modification or were some of them made that way? Any help would be greatly appreciated. [Linked Image]
