  1. ABUS is high security? I find ABUS to be quite easy actually. I find BASI locks to be middle class, and DOM locks to be very hard to pick. And then there's another brand that's even harder, but I can't remember the name.

  2. That is funny hearing about geometry not being important as I recall when they were making a big deal about computer designed picks and how they would pick better due to being computer designed

  3. The uni in my little town has this elevator. If you climb up a pipe, and over a gate, you can activate it after the place is closed. It'll bring you inside. Then there's those gates with enough clearance to fit your hand through, and you can unlock it from the other side.

  4. I have all 6 pins about level above the shear line (I'm pretty sure) and it turns like half of the way to the right and I can see none of them are still in. What am I doing wrong here?

    Really frustrating to have an "easy" practice lock that I feel like I cracked but is just teasing me haha

  5. I'm very brand new to lockpicking…like I've been interested and didn't know where to start and so I'm here! I was wondering where do I start and how?

  6. Scary. I freed my Marlin .22LR from its factory "safety" lock in 23 seconds….first try on ever picking. Straight micro rod and bent tweezers.
