Hey guys! It's been a while but I am back for the stay. I was wondering how much a decent lock (Secruity pins and all) will be.. I don't kniw how to say it without sounding noobish.. I can pick secruity pins with ease now.. It's just I don't have many locks..How muh would a decent brand put me at money wise? Thanks!

I REALLY like the Brinks high security shrouded, it has security pins, its not very hard but makes a good challenge...only costs $10-$14 depending on location and store markup(I just got two today for $13.86 from a department store that doesnt do alot of locks)

I just posted a newbie lock cyl add for Zeke on the site here. If you want a few various keyways as well as a specific pinning set I can do it and you can help out a guru from the site as well. Check it out. If you win I can load the chambers with mushroomed uppers and a high low combo for you.
