OldTrapCollector 377 Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 From the picture on the website they look like A B Country Products snares same as you get in agricultural merchants. They might look like the AB CP snares but they are not, they are his own made up copies. Just like everything else he sells there in the traps line - imported cheapo junk. I questioned him last year at a Game Fair about the legality of his spring traps and he couldn't give a straight answer, and couldn't even remember anything specific about the makers or use of the cage traps he was selling either.

RatSnatcher 0 Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 Yep same old story..... Missing a (N) of the name FENN non approved spring traps, BEWARE Quote Link to post
jayjay 264 Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 same here i bought a few off him last year at one of the gamefairs,set them and lost what ever was caught in them because the bead had come off and allowed it to escape,its all look good cheap rubbish,i also had a bit of trouble with some mole traps that i bought from him over the phone and his after sales service was'nt very good either , i would'nt buy anything from him again.

OldTrapCollector 377 Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 I also noted him selling copies of the wooden Victor Gopher Trap last week as rat and squirrel traps on eBay - totally non approved spring traps for use of course - to the unsuspecting public. Shameful really. OTC Quote Link to post
Squirrel_Basher 17,102 Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 Its a good job theres people here at the THL ,like old trap collector and many more that know their stuff inside out . Listen to them and get the right kit first time Quote Link to post
mally 832 Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 I ALWAYS buy my fox snares from Woodga. They are spot on and at the right price, he'll also make them to your specifications too. Delivery is always on time and he's a top bloke to deal with. Quote Link to post
IanB 0 Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 Yep you won't go wrong using colins snares, I'd recommend woodga for any type of snare really... Quote Link to post
