Oppertunity for me to own a Corbin Armoured Shakle Worth it?

Postby SnowyBoy » 25 Nov 2006 10:32

I've seen a corbin heavy duty armoured shackle padlock for sale, and it looks like a nice lock to experiment with, or if not, just to own.

I think the padlock is insurance approved, so i'm not looking for indepth details on picking them (as it is the wrong forum), I'm just wondering what you lot think of it, and is it a padlock i should have in my newly forming collection?

Cheers :)

p.s here's a photo

I'm probably 0 for 400 in looking for safes behind wall paintings

Geez!

Even Corbin is an Assa Abloy company. They own everything...

Hey, when it comes to buying locks, I say make your rent first, buy something nice for the girlfriend/mother (depending on your situation) and then spend the rest on locks.

Step two ensures that you won't have to spend money on food ;)
