That's great advice, but there is a dearth of Sporting Clay ranges in my part of the country. The one I belonged to closed and sold all its traps to another one that closed. And I think that one sold its traps to the one that's about 45 minutes away.

I don't put a lot of demand on a trap, but need something that's portable and doesn't take up a whole lot of space in my garage. I'm pretty much stuck to muscle power for my clay flinger as the range I go to is a cop range and I have no official status there.
