Can you lock a door with a pick gun

Can you lock a door with a pick gun


If you are locked from outside your house and you use a pick gun to open your front door, but you cannot find you keys. Could you lock your deadbolt, using a pick lock gun? If so, how?

just like you would open it.....you need to cut it out with the pick gun crap, the things dont work that well.

Does anyone know: can I clean my teeth with a pick gun? I was writing a research paper on dental hygiene, and found that most dentists recommended it for removing stubborn plaque build-up. (Much faster than those specially cut "bump toothbrushes".) Does it work just on molars, or all teeth? If it doesn't work on all teeth, why not?

I use my pick gun to clean my ears, I don't know about all teeth, but my model also doubles as a tooth cleaner, maybe somebody else could answer that question.

I used a pick gun to perform brain surgery. Gave myself a homebrew transorbital lobotomy. Just had to make a thicker needle from surgical stainless. Fed it under my eyelid, then drove it home through the bone in the top of my eye socket and hit the trigger. Best thing that ever happened to me. Totally severed the frontal lobes of my brain from the thalimus, and now nothing seems to bother me. Even redundant posting and reposting of the same question that has already been answered at least a dozen times this year alone. I can't not talk so good, and everything is different shades of gray, but if I could still feel joy, that's what I might call this confusion.

hi suhisuhisush, i observed you're a new member here so dont get offended with these guys comment they just want to make a little fun of you. they mean no offense. I'll go back to your topic. its a kind of kinder question actually, but i will go to your level and here is my answer. since you're not in that situation yet. Okey, (you will open your lock with your pickgun, and you're not sure if your key is inside.) here is what you will do.
1. When you pick the lock (by your pick gun) DONT turn the tension wrench fully YET(as to open the lock)
2. what you will do is to turn it very, very slowly only until you feel the deadbolt is JUST off the latch catch. REMEMBER, the core is still hanging, so leave it there in that position. look for the key.if its not there, and want to leave the house to look for it somewhere,
3. you can easily relock back your door by turning the tension wrench THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION as when you opened it.
Dont be ashamed of such like questions.."EVEN A FOOL HAS ITS OWN STORY TO TELL" regards yono.

In order to relock from outside, You'll have to spin it past the key pull position. It'll lock up there, as the pins spring back into the locked position. The original question was if one could relock the lock from inside with the pick gun. The answer is, OF COURSE. Just apply turning pressure in the locking direction.
