Trend Mortise and Tenon Jig Clamp Size

I’ve recently acquired a used Trend Mortise and Tenon Jig, it appears to have everything aside from the 4 clamps to hold the workpiece. My clamp collection is kind of sad still, so I don’t just happen to have the correct size already. I haven’t been able to find any information online regarding what size clamps come with this jig, but from pictures my guess would be approx. 6″ length and approx. 3.5″ jaw depth.
It would be much appreciated if somebody is able to confirm or deny those dimensions, and / or let me know the actual dimensions.
Side thought, would trigger clamps work in place of the clutch style it appears the jig ships with?
Thanks!

Just updating in case anybody is searching for the answer in the future, these 4" bessey clamps worked quite well, just had to file off the nubs at the end of the bar so I could pop the handle off and slip the bar into the jig slots.
Thanks for coming back and giving the clamp information. Always helps the future readers.
