I have some  and  like most  BGs the kill anything that gets in them but if i were buying more  traps i would just have the 116 simply because it gives you more options and for me it is easier to handle

Sure I read that this will be the last time they will be getting in the 55's. Wonder why that is? Maybe because its so hard to get in contact with BMI? Their traps are excellent, but not so much their service

had a play with one on Saturday bit more fiddly then the 116s .

so i had a look on line and found this

How you find the round trigger Eddie?

I have them on most my bodygrips. Might not make a difference for squirrels or rats, but some mink will shy away from the usual trigger. Also, a mink will try pop through that hole, resulting in a good solid catch.

Cheers mate. I’ll keep that in mind

going to alter a couple of mine to round got 116s with them seems to look more natural 

[CHEVINFOX 3,537]

made the trigger round took the so called safety catch off and moved the chain 

[Elchapo 3,172]

I got a about 15 of the 110 boddy grips caught a couple bits and bobs but had more nicked than caught so not used them in ages probably end up rusting away

What do you not like about them?

[Ken's Deputy 4,462]

What nicks them? People, or things snatching the catch?
