Just going to post some random locks I see during work for a few weeks. The Best beauty secures fiber optics related equipment I believe. BNSF uses the Abloys.

WOW, I have never seen one of the Best 91Bs in use before. They are rare as hell.

Heck yeah! those are way too rare to actually be used... tell them you will trade them a nice shiny new padlock to replace that old thing! ;)

I would probably hoard them in a dark cave and call them my precious! You are right though it never hurts to ask.

DTW you gotta ask for sure. I have a feeling they wont agree to trade just because Bests are usually Master and Grandmaster keyed so lots of people may have keys to them however the point to ask is that you never know how many more they may have not in use collecting dust on a shelf.

I call 2nd as Im sure Riy auto called 1st lol

Next time I am at their office I will for sure. Seen an old Medeco on a clubhouse gate. The Primus is for the city where the local PD vehicles are serviced.

Absolutely gorgeous locks!

Piece of advice, if asking for it fails you, move to plan B... Beg for it.

Simple. ;)

Nicer finds today. Who doesn't love/hate Best? The schools use Corbin Russwin here.
