European Set Need Help

Postby Frank_NL » 3 Apr 2007 16:46

Hello everybody, im looking for a lock pick set, i'm no expert so I can really use youre help. I was looking on the Southord site, and I found this a MPXS-14 set (26 dollars) in the Outlet catagory.

Get the slimline 15 piece set. You WILL need slimline in Europe. sorry this is a bit short but this question gets answered about 3 times a week every week.

Yes,

The C1500 is the 15 piece slim line set and is the set to buy if in europe or picking european locks,

The european locks have tighter keyways that the us and this means the bigger picks sometimes struggle in locks and dont even fit in others,
