Recently somebody gift me this. Can anyone give me information on this? The lock is 4 1/2" high X 3 3/4" wide, and the key is 2 7/8" long. It works fine.
Thanks

We try to have any pictures loaded onto this server so that if they drop off the picture site we don't lose the thread and what it was about years from now. I will load them here.

This is how it is done so you know.

On topic, I don't know anything about this lock but would LOVE to see more pictures. A pic of the entire key.

This padlock is made approximately 1988-1992 years.On the surface of the lock shown its price-2 rubles 90 kopecks "Ц2р.90к." It was a rule in the USSR - indicate the price of the product.After 1992 these prices have not been ...

inflation...Perhaps the lock is made in one of the many factories whose products became worthless after the collapse of the Soviet Union.Such a mechanism locks was very popular in the early 90's Factory logo, I could not find.Maybe the logo is changed, or the plant is closed.

Thank you VERY much for that information! It is interesting that the price would be cast into the lock.... makes price changes VERY hard to do after it is made.

I hope my message is not really reduced the cost of the lock.

No. It happens all over that the manufacture goes under and the logo drops out of use. We will find all of what you have said interesting. Mostly becouse it was about locks.

I have a Russian padlock that appears to be newer, there are no markings other than a trademark. Vladimir, do you recognize this one?

This combination padlock VS 6. In the Russian transcription - " Замок навесной кодовый ВС 6 "
This lock is made in the city Kozmodemyansk .In the Russian transcription - " Козьмодемьянск ". This is indicated by the letter "k" in the logo.
Kozmodemyansk steel plant. The plant site is not even on the internet and was appointed bankruptcy trustee ...Apparently it really bad ... This is a link to Google maps :
