Daggers wrote:the lock that i practice on has the pins on the bottom not the top so when they are set, the pins are not just hanging there by gravity. They still have a little bit of a spring to them, but i don't know how they have springiness when set. Is it harder to pick this type of lock than one with pins on the top? And the lock is mounted on a door (my own, so no issues on legality there) so I know it's the right side up.

read and read and read and read, then post questions.
The information you seek is all here and has been asked before.
