Master Triggerlock

Postby TheSkyer » 18 Mar 2009 9:17

I made a rather weird "discovery" when I was playing around with the easiest lock in the world. The Master Trigger lock (http://www.masterlocks.com/item.asp?CID=1562). I found out that if I only SPP the 3the pin it will actually open, without even touching the other 3. How is this possible?

The tolerance of the other three pins is so broad that you get them over the shear line by just inserting the pick.

Possibly not (though I bet you are at least a little) but if it is cut low enough it might just be always open. Do you have the key? Is there a big dip in the key where the fourth pin would be?

LOL, didn't even bother look at the key before, I consider it unfair to the lock XD. Pin 4 is cut at 8, that explains XD cuts for pin 1 and 2 look like there a 1 and a 3, would make sense....
