alright.... there is no edit button so ill just make a new post. i think it does have some sort of false setting pins in there, but it should still bind.

No special pins in this lock, just a cheap brinks backpack/lugauge padlock. I am using my trusty tension wrench that came with the brockhage set. I've tried the picks in the brockhage set and a couple southord locks. No difference.

I am tempted to bust it open to figure it out, if not out of spite. However I know it's a simple lock, and it cost basically nothing.

I think it might be that two or more pins need to be set at the same time, but I have no idea how to do that. Raking seems to set a pin (The core moves very slightly), however after that I go back to my hook pick, and I just can't find which one set, they all move just as easily.

I'll put it on my list to pick up another one of these and to make note of the model number before I trash the documentation. Who know's this one could be a fluke and actualy be of higher quality than it was supposed to be.

(Sorry about the delay in responding, I have been working alot)

Tolerances can be kinda funny like that.
