Can anyone tell me where I can find a decent pick gun for a reasonable price? I am looking to stay in the $25 - $30 range.
To pick... or not to pick... That is the question.
also, if you pick your nose in public...please use light tension!

Just check all the main online stores and search the forum for reviews on each gun.

Hi bigone.
In my opinion, you are better off making a snap pick than buying a pick gun. The snap picks I've made form coat hangers work considerably better than the Southord snap pick that I bought for $45 US.
The only exception to this that I can think of is if you are actually a locksmith. It may look a bit "little-league" to open up someones lock with a bent up coat hanger.
Having said all that, it's still so much more fun to pick.
Happy picking!

Women are an investment. Like any decent investment, the more you spend on them, the better the return.
Bear in mind that money isn't the only thing you have to spend. This is where women become complicated.
Now, about pick guns:
Majestic's Lockaid is probably the best. Followed by Kaba-Ilco's gun (try finding the "black chrome" model if you want a real challenge.
After that, you get the HPC pick gun, the SouthOrd gun and various other names.

lol very true but i can remember many women in my younger years that the more i invested the more they took; without any return except for heartbreak
so i guess if women are viewed as an investment, I would say...

db's Top 5 Reasons Women Are NOT Like Other Investments:
5. I never have to buy my stock flowers.
4. My AOL stock will never leave me for a younger thinner inverstor.
3. There's a closing bell in the stock market, and after that, you get peace and quiet until morning.
2. I'm allowed AND encouraged to own more than one stock.
And the number one reason women are NOT like other investments is...
1. I can leave my investments in the hands of another man and not feel immasculated by the fact that he handles her better than I do.

It's the most difficult sort of lock. Impossible to pick, narrow keyways, wards in unexpected places, and much more tension than you'd like to think...
