Borderland Old-School Trapper Pack Frames - HAND MADE IN USA

MADE IN THE USA 

The Trapper- 2 Sizes to Choose From   (Ships up to 1 weeks from purchase - purchase separately to not affect shipping of other items) 

The Trapper-Original has identical dimensions to the classic antique pack frame so rare to find nowadays. Ideal size for deer, sheep, goat, antelope and similar-sized skulls.  

Also the perfect size for the cape-rolled mounts of such animals! Deer shed antlers, smaller furs (fox, bobcat, coyote) will look the best on this pack size as well.  

The Trapper-XL is ideally suited for the display of larger skulled animals such as elk, bison and similar sizes. Also ideal for full-body, rolled capes for “pack mounts” of mountain goats, bighorn sheep, and bear hides! Elk and moose shed displays will look the best on the XL as well. 

The added height and width to the XL is unique only to us as we saw a need for a larger pack; otherwise, larger-skulled and caped animals will simply drown out and cover almost all of the original design and not allow much of the pack to be seen. Rather than seeing this look primarily for deer, the possibilities are now virtually endless in the types of displays possible with a few added inches to the height and width!
