Hey everyone! I need help figuring out how many mushroom pins are in the abus buffo 28/70. I cant seem to get this lock, been trying for over an hour today. Im not the best picker yet, really just starting out. I can unlock every lock in my house, so my girlfriend got me this lock. Not as easy as i thought it would be.

Thanks

All 5 are spool or mushroom.

have fun! and stop picking locks in your house.. thats one of the big rules around here. every week someone asks how to fix their lock after they bugger it up.

I was always under the illusion that at least one stack had to be a standard pin ?
So that the max would be four, in a five pin lock ? It's the most I've ever come across, or would want to for that matter :-)

Good luck with the lock dude :-)

I opened it once! I believe it was just luck, still been messing with it everyday since and havent gotten it open again. It gets frustrating, you work on something this long and get no where. I have stopped picking my house locks though.
