I keep thinking about picking up a set of these for fun. To be fair though, the ruger lock you could probably open with a flat bladed screwdriver.

Way to prop a guy up :)

It's the only other non combo pad lock I had ;)
Was picking on the lock, not on you ;)

I do dig the fact that it came with the clear lock as well for practice. Got a link?

Massdrop has decent sets from time to time. Now my 15 year old is laughing when he sees anyone in a TV show or movie 'picking' a lock. lol

Yep, possession of picks is not illegal in any state but some have add-on charges in case you were found to have illegally entered a location you were not supposed to be in.

Turns out I was able to futz open a ruger lock with some effort.

How is your lock picking going? I bought a very good 2--pick set (short hook and pagoda). I've opened 5 of my gun locks, but the other 7 or so are giving me fits.

I think I might invest in one of those clear locks...

Do it!!! I have ADD and watching the pins is so satisfying. I can pick for hours!

Marlin lock: opened about 30 times
Generic gun lock (that apparently is CA approved): opened about 10 times
Ruger lock: twice
Masterlock trigger lock: once
Super-duper boron carbide $25 master lock: once
Cheap piece of crap Chinese gun lock: zero! WTF????

I've only successfully used the short pick like three times. The pagoda can take a couple of minutes or less than 5 seconds.

That's a dandy tensioner ya have there!

Next you may want to grab a set of "jigglers", supposedly designed for automotive locks, we found them useful for working on padlocks, in particular.

I tried adding a pic but wound up gagging my ancient netbook (almost a half hour ago, took that long to clear up)
Perhaps someone may want to post a pic?
