Pistol box keys?

Thanks to a hot streak at the fea market I landed both a Pachmayr and a Gun-ho box.  (Already being somewhat satisfied with a pelican I'm not sure what I am going to do with them, suggestions & inquiries welcome). 

Meanwhile I don't have keys for either.  If you have one or the other with keys, I would be interested in any clues (size, shape, # of pins etc) so I can have an informed discussion with a locksmith and possibly get some made.

I have two pachmayr cases with keys. I can see if there is a difference and take photo's for you if you'd like.

The lock on my Pachmayr case has a three digit number that matches the key number. Does yours have a number? I found a key for mine on e-bay.

There is a guy on ebay selling Pachmayr keys.


I recently purchased a few cases myself.  Keeping one and the rest are getting refurbished and donated to junior shooters.

I have a four gun, and a five gun Pachmayer box. Both sets of keys I found are identical. There is a key for the front door and a separate key for the back door compartment. One key is marked "151" and the other "6K11".

Merick,

I have a key that might work for you. See your PMs.

The 151 key looks to be widely available.  Any input on the gun-ho key type?

In case anyone needs Excelsior 6K11 key, an alternative/replacement that was posted by xman on another discussion is Excelsior 6K1. I bought one for my Pachmayr 4 pistol box and it works perfectly.

I haven't seen the keys for my Gun-Ho box in a looooong time. However, I remember what it looked like. Chrome, about 1" square body, and two evenly spaced fingers at the end of a 3/4"ish long blade.

I too am looking for keys for my 5 gun gun-ho box

FYI. My box is a 4 gun Gun Ho and the Excelsior 6K1 works! Might/should work on a 5 gun Gun Ho too.
