unclemicky 3 Posted August 26, 2010 Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 Fenn's are quite interesting when they go off and there's a finger in that really small gap between the jaws OUCH. Quote Link to post
borntoshoot 1 Posted August 26, 2010 Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 Fenn's are quite interesting when they go off and there's a finger in that really small gap between the jaws OUCH. I second that. Fenn MK4 has to be top of the pain list, magnum bodygrips are a close second. Quote Link to post

nod 285 Posted August 26, 2010 Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 Fenn's are quite interesting when they go off and there's a finger in that really small gap between the jaws OUCH. I second that. Fenn MK4 has to be top of the pain list, magnum bodygrips are a close second. I beg to differ had both mark 4 and a mk6 and the mark 6 hurt more but only when someone else got it of my fingers, while it was on my fingers no pain just numb, also had a talpex pinch my finger giving me a nice blood blister, p.s there is a new initiation test before you are in, turn the talpex upside down, put your todger inbetween the jaws then get your misses to set it off, if this can be done with a tear to the eye you are in Quote Link to post
OldTrapCollector 377 Posted August 26, 2010 Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 I reckon a Juby would be a better test than the Kania ChalkWarren - just lowering your back wheels onto the plate would sort the men from the boys ... OTC Quote Link to post

moxy 617 Posted August 26, 2010 Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 You havent passed yet my friend!! A dufus spring at full whack right on the knuckle end on a freezing cold winter morning, that brings tears to your eyes. Especially if its one of the first traps set and you have another shed load to go down. You cant beat that numb stinging sensation. Now wipe your eyes and get a grip you southern fairy Quote Link to post
