If you are a working locksmith, then sure, a pick gun is an ok way to get your work done, but if you are learning picking for the joy or challenge of picking open a lock, nothing beats the sense of satisfaction of picking with a hand pick set, rather than pressing the trigger or button on a pick gun or electronic pick gun.
Also, if you are a massive noob to picking, just picking a couple locks around your house is simply not enough practice and experience to walk up to a BiLock and pick it. It is a very difficult to pick lock, very difficult. Not impossible but harder than Medeco, your local Lockwood, Mul-T-Lock Interactive, BEST, Sargent, etc.
Keep practicing and learning about locks, and try the BiLock once in a while (there's something to be said for luck when it comes to picking locks), and perhaps in a few weeks, months, or maybe later this year you can be proficient enough to pick it. Take one apart, look at patent drawings to see what's inside one. It's useful to have a mental image of the inside of the lock and what state the parts are in while picking.
Have a good one,
