Hi! I was recently cleaning out my agency's armory and came across a box marked "Leg Irons". I opened the box and found 5 pair of Towers Adjustable Double Lock Leg Irons No. 50! They actually appear to be unused, in working order, and with 2 keys. I have looked at information on your website and am interested in any other info I can get on these irons as well as Foth Lock Co. If anyone can help me with valuation, I would appreciate it as well.
Thank you!

#2Hi betsy:
Foth Lock took over the manufacturing of the Tower handcuffs and leg irons after Tower stopped making them. Foth was a Tower employee. Value would depend on how the leg irons are marked and wether they were made by Tower or Foth. A normal Tower Leg iron sells on ebay in the $ 100.00 ballpark. Yours might be worth more.

This reminds me of Lars' old April Fools thread. Didn't that involve 5 pairs of something?

They're worthless, and dangerous to possess. Send them to me immediately for proper disposal.
Seriously, it sounds like a find. I think you'll find some interest on this board.
