"Trap Pin" Locks

Postby Klaiviel » 15 Apr 2010 21:46

What are some locks that make use of trap pins? I haven't really seen a list on here yet, the only one I have seen mentioned is the M&C Antiklop.

I wonder if there is some substance that would inject into a lock to hold the pins in place for a short time then unfreeze and not damage the mechanism.
Really we should think about some way to do something like this to pass trappers.

The only problem with that is it's a one time deal kinda thing.

Segal's Hines Key System used a trap pin.
Nothing is foolproof to a talented fool. Wisdom is not just in determining how to do something, but also includes determining whether it should be done at all.
