As title suggests I’m looking for a lock source. I’d prefer 2 Protec 3’s. I’m traveling with my gun and drove here. I am probably flying out. I don’t want to leave my gun so I’d like to get a great lock for the plane. I’ve heard lots of good things about the Protec padlocks and have them on my short list but have no idea if there’s anywhere I can just go grab a pair or an equivalent.

Ask me about locks, paddling, and bonsai.

I've bought from Security Snobs many times. Never had a problem, and the link will take you right to their Abloy Protec2 PL330 padlocks. And yes, I have one or two. Gordon
Just when you finally think you have learned it all, that is when you learn that you don't know anything yet.

Question.. *when* are you probably flying out? if it's in 2 weeks, then you're best bet is finding a lock online somewhere, security snobs is great, and we all know them very well. But if you're flying out this Friday morning, then call Howard Safe and Lock tomorrow morning, stop by their shop to browse, and buy a Medeco or Mul-T-Lock high security padlock from them. I'm not sure however how big the eyelets on your gun case are? Will something like an Abloy 330 or Medeco or other equivilant even fit? I think you would be fine with even an ABUS brand padlock, they have some nice spool pins and tight keyways (as long as you don't get the ones with the KW1/SC1 keyways)
good luck, Squelchtone

Exactly what I was looking for. I was thinking one of the others as a possibility. I will call Howard’s tomorrow and go browse as I’m planning on flying Friday morning. Lol. Thank you everyone!
