Well, they are not mutually exclusive, its like trying to choose between apples and oranges. A pick gun can be a fun toy, but most people who have them tend to put them in a tool box where they sit and collect dust. Comb picks are cool and can help on locks that are packed full of security pins.
Yes, but you should know that comb picks are hit-or-miss. The idea is to push both the top and bottom pins out of the plug, and sometimes the pin stack is too large to be pushed out. Also some manufacturers put ball bearing in the springs to prevent the use of a comb pick. But they should work most of the time.
chip, ive heard of pick guns demolishing high security locks, they just take alot of playing with that tension knob thing. and i believe your pick needle is upside down. :p.. theyre kool though. But regular picking is way better. :]
no the pick is right, i actually had it on the other way, but then i looked at the manual and thats how they have it. But yea i definitely need to mess around with it more, maybe ill have better luck
yea im not hating on it, i just prefer traditional picking. But i guess it could be a good thing to have around if a lock is giving you trouble. I'll mess around with it some more, maybe it will grow on me.
too much pressure on the wrench
