they look very agreesive for sure, when I filed in teeth I did them very deep as well to bite as good as they could. Are you making these? The other pre notched cams way to shallow IMO. Who needs 3/64th cable for coyotes  |

Cost? Yes they cost! a little more but one has to pay to get such fine workmanship. That's why the "other" "notched cam" is as it is. Cheap is never better.
They are available now. I got them made back in Jan but they had a rivet issue and the rivets had to be re-pressed. It's all on my mickey mouse nasty website. Not commercially available yet. Medium size in July.
Robert, I actually didn't try them out on 3/64" but they lock up much better on the 1/16 than the others plus don't seem to wear out easily.
39, yup I am getting them made.
They are an object of beauty! I liked them very much. My camlocks are all going down the road.

Many midwest states sadly will never allow such use due to dogs and the hunting community and urban areas. I'm sure MO would like to have far different cable laws but, public perception will sadly never allow such. Many game people would like to have more tools to reduce coyotes in their states but a kill lock and spring just doesn't fit into the realm of the public in many states.
One thing I do miss about South Dakota very liberial snaring laws.

I'm afraid here in MI we'll never get back to even a 2.5" deer stop and certainly no entanglement ever again so you adapt!! |

Snares and bodytraps a nono, seems like we could at least have a two day check. Hunters could figure ou t how to take them off the dog and even if a dog was held two days it wouldn't kill them. Jim |

Looks like it is going to be a good lock Marty. Can not wait to try a few.
We are now using the 3/32 filed cam loc on the 5/64 wire for wolves. Where we use the 1/16 wire for lynx we use the 5/64 filed lock. A size larger seems to prevent some freezing issues.

Where could you find 5/64th filed lock?
I understand that it is a Camlock?
As far as I know... Camlocks come in 3 sizes 1/16-3/32 and 1/8th

When do you think we'll be able to purchase the 3/32nd or 5/64th Lightning locks?

I am expecting the 3/32" size to be here for July, probably late July.

Ok thanks!
Soon, you will be dominating the snare lock market with the Lightning locks.

Oh I doubt it, guys like cheap, not quality. The biggest selling point is the sharp teeth that don't need filing. That's worth a lot to me. And they just don`t seem to wear down.
