Never Judge a lock by its model!!

Postby BSG_314159 » 15 Mar 2015 17:14

So one of my tough boxes in my garage had two pacific 95g locks connected on the hinges. I decided it was time for these guys to come off and I to my ammo can of random pacific locks.

First lock I picked open one to two minutes. My average time on these locks. FLBor this second 95g... took me several attempts lasting 15 min. So I decided to open her up and show everyone a 95g. I have seen a lot of 100g locks opened up but no 95.

I'm surprised they cared enough to put in those spool pins, nice double spool too
Too bad the bottom pins aren't flatter on top

These pins are so small that it's tough to feel for those security pins.

Hello BSG_314159,

Thanks for sharing the full teardown with the detailed photos. Is that shackle bent on the bottom?
