anyway NIC's problem... insert the key turn 45º and pull (use plug follower as nessicary) if this is not original to you careful as it maybe mastered pinned and sometimes them wafers get all jammed up.
:?: My medeco IC padlock had a C clip. I lost it though. I hate C clips. I wish locks used the clips with the holes for the pliers. I stocked up last time I went to the hardware store to start swapping them for each other on all my locks.

If your new you will never pick a sidebar medeco even old L R C but you can shim. The mushroom drivers if installed will screw up a shim or two sometimes. The mortise and rim you should be able to remove the cap screws and empty the chambers.knob/lever on the other hand if you have access to new caps in amedeco kit you can rip the top cover off.

NIC's pretty excited.  I would be too with an M3IC
Just got my regular Biaxial ICore a couple of days ago. No control key either. It's a real bummer.

don't know friend, but one would assume so. If it's SFIC I mean, I think that's what defines it, you know?
