I ordered 4 of these when they were $5 off. No quality issues like rust as other people described and the finish on the body is very satisfying to feel. I think every lock I received has at least 1 or 2 zero lift pins, which really help you learn how to not overset pins when picking.Overall these are great for locksport practice, especially if you get them on sale. These are a great lock for practicing top of the keyway tension as well.

These American locks are a nice design and they have a few higher security features that makes them harder to pick by the average person a locksmith could get in it in 30 seconds but its much better security compared to the normal master lock. The security pins slows down the picking to a degree. the aluminum body makes the lock much lighter than a steel lock. the shackle doesn't rust easily. Overall it is a nice lock. The packaging isn't much its just a small cardboard box and 3 of the 4 locks I received had scuffs and scratches on the aluminum body it probably would have faired better If it was inside a small plastic sleeve.

I had one which I got really good at picking so I got another to challenge myself. Another reviewer said these looked used and rusty, but it was just brass dust from the key which wiped right off revealing that the lock was in perfect new condition.

They are fantastic locks. Open smooth close smooth and very strong. However they look used or rusty. I'd like a new set being the photos show two different locks with wear.

When I first got the lock it was a little bit stiff. The shackle would take some good effort to push back into the locked position. It's nice and lightweight which can be useful if you need to carry it around. I wouldn't use it for anything high security. The shackle looks pretty thin and the aluminum body does not inspire much confidence. I use it for my locker even though the shackle was a bit long. For $15 I'd say this is a worthy upgrade from a master lock.

I do locksport for fun. I received this lock configured with 5 pins and the last pin chamber empty with a non key retaining actuator. I did not get a anti-bypass wafer meaning that someone can use a bypass tool to open this lock about as fast as with the key. When picking, this lock feels easier to pick than older locks even with the security pins equipped.

Easy to cut open but we're looking at it from a locksport standpoint and it's well worth it.

Excellent lock for training for lock picking. The pinning on it is great; lots of security pins. Also this came at a very low price.
