Best brand lock cylinder

[lick]

Has anyone ever picked a brand called best lock cylinder? it is kind of shaped like a double ball pick or figure 8, it also has has a n6 below the best logo stamped on the lock. If so it is it a easy pick? just curious, looking for one for my collection. Pin and tumler first and tubler later down the road. I am a novice in this hobby and I enjoy this very much. lots to learn and fun to do.

I have picked alot of these, that n6 is probably a code for a master key system or such, your not picking a lock that doesn't belong to you are ya?? If not, they are not easy to pick but they are not exactly hard either, they don't give me any problems but I hae lots of practice. Lets see a picture of your lock, so that we know that it is yours.

I would not practice on this lock if you are a beginner. Best brand locks usually have security pins. They make many padlocks as well. Try learning on a kwikset which are cheaper as well

The "Double ball" or "Figure 8" description seems to imply it's an IC core. I've never seen a pinning kit, aside from Kaba's, that utilize security pins for an IC core. Even then, only a few could be used because if you get too many at either the control or key shearline, you can run into some trouble - such as the change or control key not operating their intended shearline.
