Is it legal to own/buy a lockpicking kit?
Yes, it's perfectly legal to own a lockpicking kit. I researched it pretty heavily when I got mine. It's only illegal to (obviously) use it in the commission of a crime or to sell locksmithing services without a license.
I just use mine for picking locks at home because it makes for a good party trick and feels pretty cool when you get it open.
I don't think so and it could be used in court against you as it shows an intent to break into someone's house.
If you are uncertain, try getting some (free) legal advice?
