Interesting. Seems like it would make it pretty easy to pick knowing there will always be exactly two false gates to either side of the true gate... am I wrong?

It helps, yes, but both false gates are not always accessible.

Sargent & Greenleaf 6731
Group 2
Much like the 6730, but it has 4 wheels instead of 3.

Not much of a collection a diebold 921, s&g 6730, protectall, and I'm not to sure on the little one, but cold weather will start me going and back to buying. I could had better pictures but I just had major foot operation and I'm still a little groggy

ALusher69, can you show please also the other internal side of the Protectall lock? I can't identify it with what I can see so far.
The Diebold and Mosler are not that common locks. So for three locks it's not bad.

This is the lock . It really needs a good cleaning. Let me know if there is another picture you need.

The Diebold should be a 177-23, in case you didn't know it.

I would like to know if the yale 0700 is a group 2 I googled it and found nothing and I might of asked before here and didn't find the information on it..All this summer i've done a massive amount of reading and the information from this forum by MartinHewitt, Oldfast, , bitbuster, Riyame, and there is so many more and in no piticular order plus more practice now with the help of Adderall. Thank you I really enjoy safes, old and new I sometimes rather be in a security store with safes and locks then a jewelry store.

Formally it isn't a Group 2, practically it is.
Formally Group 2 is a process, where you have to fulfill some requirements, apply at UL, pay them some money and get a Group 2 sticker. The 0700 doesn't have such a sticker.
Practically a Group 2 is for us a lock, which is not protected against manipulation. That is what the 0700 is. So feel free to manipulate it and have some fun. From the construction quality I guess it is probably not that difficult.
