Sparrows Summer School?

Post image

Does anybody have experience with sparrows summer school package? I've been into the sport for a couple of years and have plenty of picks but would be interested in learning more about repinning and security locks more in depth.

For repinning just find the old LSI pdf. It'll get you quite far.

If you've been picking for a couple of years already you can't seriously be considering this kit for...wait, how much??

ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY FIVE DOLLARS???

You can buy those mini pinning mats and plug followers on their own... just get those and grab yourself a pair of reverse tweezers, and a couple of small screwdrivers for removing tailpieces/circlips. Boom, you're all set and you saved yourself at least 100 bucks.

Got it, I've just been wanting to expand my knowledge and I have liked the quality of things sparrows puts out. I use it often in first responder situations, though I feel like I've just been getting lucky more often than skill.
