from what I have read they pick like any Master lock... (easy..)
I watched a video on youtube with a guy taking 6 foot bolt cutters to the shackle and one of the comments was from a guy that said "I have 2 Magnums in my lock collection that I use to demonstrate how looks are deceptive. They are the EASIEST locks to pick in my collection"

They are only $15.00 so I say go ahead and pick one up... but I doubt it would pick like a smartkey

I think also they make a version that looks the same but isn't rekeyable, and only four pins. Also, I've seen six foot bolt cutters before, but only once, they're pretty rare I think. I only ever saw one once in a little hardware store in Florida. Maybe the ones you saw were a 36" or a 42".

Just when you finally think you have learned it all, that is when you learn that you don't know anything yet.

Thank you very much for the link. It was very informative. I was mostly curious about the picking experience.

Master padlock is making fun of the security chart if they think that padlock rates a 9
I have cut that boron shackle with my harbor freight 36" bolt cutter
