gamerooster 1,179 Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 are these traps legal for use in the UK for recommended species, might seem a mental question to those in the know, but just curious Quote Link to post
Outlaw Pete 2,224 Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 No. Does a #280 even exist? #220, perhaps? Edited to say: F**k me! Now I see! That's some scary shit, mate! #330 can smash the largest Dogs head in two. #220 and a badger has about three seconds. #280 ....? You F**king seriously Do Not want those things let loose in your countryside. Quote Link to post
EDDIE B 3,166 Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 No use for these traps in this part of the world! What would you use them for? Quote Link to post
micky 3,325 Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 I think the bigger sized traps can only be used underwater in most US states Quote Link to post
J Darcy 5,871 Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 Those traps are dangerous. Very. They have no place in the UK countryside. p.s, yes they do a 280. Quote Link to post
Malt 379 Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 What the hell would you want one of those for here? Quote Link to post
gamerooster 1,179 Posted April 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 Curiosity, suppose if it was legal....... Foxes??? Quote Link to post
gazjon5 854 Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 Here in Alberta the 330 size traps are certified for beaver, lynx and otter. Not much will walk away alive from them though, if caught correctly... http://albertaregulations.ca/trappingregs/general-regulations.htm#trap-requirements Quote Link to post
perthshire keeper 1,239 Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 just think...if you had a couple miles of forestry fenceing and a couple dozen good runs....and the 3 day checking rule that some of the usa have....and a hand full of bigger body grips.....one can but dream Quote Link to post

Matt 160 Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 Not all body grippers are legal to use in the UK. Only those makes and models actually listed on the STAO are legal to use. Quote Link to post
