I recently acquired another batch of Flightmasters which included this rather wonderful little trap. I haven’t seen this particular variation before and was a bit sceptical as to it’s purpose and use but it’s an absolute corker!
The story is that it’s a prototype built by the manufacturer for a customer, I reckon that’s right as I have two more of these, slightly modified, zinc plated and a left and right pair. The trap is fully adjustable for elevation by a big ‘T’ bolt and it also tilts to the right to produce some lovely curling targets.The spring doesn’t look as powerful as some but due to the single lengthened arm it is capable of throwing a long and fast driven clay. There’s a new stainless steel teal clip and a re-rubbered drive rail.It’s a standard Flightmaster ‘A’ frame base that comes apart and the trap folds flat for travel and storage. I’ve made a new seat which is adjustable for length to suit the operator. The owner wasn’t the most meticulous about his leaky shed so there is a bit of surface degradation but and I’ve tidied up the whole trap with a bit of black paint.I’ve only done up this one so far but you’re welcome to ask for pictures of the other traps if you’re looking for a driven setup for your guests.£145 (+£25 delivery) SOLD
