    Mucko, you could make one like Moonhunt's that was able to be broken down and bolted together. That way you could carry it in in pieces and assemble it on site.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    I roll it end over end, I made it way more lightweight than the first as getting them in place can make it a chore
    With 2 long bamboo poles or similar lashed to to sides it could be an easy carry for 2 guys
    And keep googling there are some guys in the US that trap full time and make there traps as they go with pre made panels
