I picked up a master lock #3 today. So far I have been practicing on Master locks #1, #5, and #15. I can get the 1 and 5 but not the 15. I was able to pick the #3 just as easily as I can pick the #1 and #5.
I noticed on the back of the packaging it lists 3 "features" of the lock. This one sounds like gibberish: "2. Pin tumbler mechanism for additional resistance to picking" Is that implying something that is going over my head?

They probably just mean more pick resistance than a warded lock mechanism.
