Finishing off a shower room for a customer today, clearing our stuff from the front of the garage and he showed me a collection of three man traps, two were smaller with very heavy flat crushing jaws, the other was the toothed type, about 48" long, all of them would shred a leg between ankle and knee - they are no gin traps!
Apparently when the farm was sold off 25 years ago, the auctioneer didn't want anything to do with them! I told him that I thought they were probably illegal to possess, let alone try to sell. If anyone knows I'll pass the info on. He does have a pair of plain ish very large fire dogs and cross bar open to offers though. |

Quick - get one and mount it beneath the drivers seat
Just don't forget to disarm it before you drive  |
