Tubular lock Identification?

Postby scorpiac » 3 May 2007 19:44

How do you identify if you are dealing with a an Ace,Ace2, or just some generic tubular lock? Are there any identifying marks or physical characteristics? I have a motorcycle brake disc lock with a seven pin tubular in it that I've been having no luck with, it looks and feels to be of good quality but I have no idea what kind of tubular lock (make) it is. I also have a gun locker with 2 tubulars in it I haven't tried to open yet. I've just started playing with tubulars and would kinda like to know what kind of locks I'm working wtih so I can determine if it's the quality of lock defeating me or just my inexperience with tubulars.

Thanks, Phil.

The Ace II says so on the face of the lock.
