first and foremost for the LOVE OF GOD type slower and spell better.


second just because a lock is the same brand doesnt necassarily mean it has the same number of pins, bitting etc.

Do you mean you are new to lockpicking? If you are new to locksmithing you would know the answer. :wink:

The biting of the lock had alot to do with how difficult it is to pick. Look at the key, if their are high cuts next to low cuts it will be harder to pick.
