Personally if you yourself are not willing to set the mouse trap off IN your own hand before setting this out in the feild I really wouldn't recommend the mouse traps. Specially when there are so many other ways out there. Like fire alarms for example. Stick a batter in one, wire it so that when the top is pressed it goes off! Only need to modify the test button really. Unless you're smoking out in the feild real close to the ground. Yeah I'm looking at you Stalker! :P just kidding. That way its easily reuseable. Not to mention that there are ways to rewire them up to have trip lins and all sorts of different applications to them.

Anything that can hurt someone is probably not the best way to go. And yes I know LUTNIT we are shooting at each other here. But you wanna go crawling along and roll to cover to take this thing on your ear; nose, neck, face, etc etc.?


I have built something simmiler to this but see it takes alot of work to keep the nail, and the CO2 in place. Mine worked but it took to much time to make and broke after a few uses.
