micky 3,325 Posted January 29, 2015 Report Share Posted January 29, 2015 A simple ,easy to use and humane trap ,much better than the Fenn 6 for rabbits in their burrows,their only downside is that they have becoming to valuable to use . 2 Quote Link to post
socks 32,253 Posted January 29, 2015 Report Share Posted January 29, 2015 Imbras are spot on but like has been said the cost of them means that I only use them on secure sites ...... Quote Link to post
perthshire keeper 1,237 Posted January 29, 2015 Report Share Posted January 29, 2015 why wont some one make them again? surely their has to be a market for them to make it worthwhile 1 Quote Link to post

micky 3,325 Posted January 29, 2015 Report Share Posted January 29, 2015 [quote name="perthshire keeper" post="385096 Mixi finished rabbit trapping in the 50s, it will never come back, the world has moved on and the 22 rifle has now replaced the trap and trapping is now just a hobby for the few people who do it , the imbra will never make a comeback because other than a very small select few there is no market for them in the numbers that would make it viable . 1 Quote Link to post
Phil Lloyd 10,736 Posted January 29, 2015 Report Share Posted January 29, 2015 Imbras are superb traps for rabbits,..real efficient in sandy warrens and deadly in a block trapping situation. They are also extremely well constructed,..this would be a determining factor where Far Eastern production is concerned. I feel that it would be far too expensive to produce them nowadays... This is a shame... Quote Link to post
J Darcy 5,871 Posted January 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2015 When I get a spare minute I am going to look into the financial side to producing some Imbra's. Just as I think it would be a good thing to do. I reckon people would still buy them.... 2 Quote Link to post

heritage 202 Posted January 29, 2015 Report Share Posted January 29, 2015 It wouldn't be worth producing Imbras as there just isn't the interest anymore,.... The production side is straight forward enough as I already manufacture a small range of spare parts and found the design straight forward enough..... If you were to make them and you managed to do it at a reasonable cost there's still the patent and approval to consider...... 1 Quote Link to post

A patent is not for an indefinite time it has a time limit 20 yeas I believe. TC 1 Quote Link to post
