Best progressive lock set?

Postby Teddy Picker » 15 Nov 2012 18:20

I'm looking at getting a set of progressive locks to start learning how to pick (I have a Kwikset I've been re-pinning, but that's getting annoying). The lock sets I'm looking at are the combined set from here, and the set fromhere. Both are the same price, but the first has more locks. I'd like a set that I can easily pick at least one of the locks, but that will continue to provide me a challenge as I become a better picker. Is there any advantage of one set over the other? Are there any other progressive lock sets out there that I should consider?

Either one is probably a good bet. Both are progressively pinned, including adding security pins gradually.
