I Just found the weirdest thing. A barrel pin in a master #3!!!!!

Just wow!!! you can bet if I find any old masters I'm going to open them up.

How old are we talking here approx.? I bet I have some older (not sure *how* old) #3's laying around that I'd be willing to dissect. I'll have to look around.

I've got an older Yale 5 pin rim cylinder lock chock full of security pins : 3 spools, 1 barrel pin, and 1 standard driver pin. My info has it as being in the nature of and anti-impressioning pin something along the principal of Dom torpedo pins. :barrel:
