Am I right or not?

I just made a few picks, but I have no good tension tool yet. I felt my way in my front door lock (yeah, I know how picks and locks work, theoretically), and it doesn't seem like too difficult and impossible a task to complete. From the clicks I count 5, maybe 6 pins in the Weiser tumbler lock. I am good at manual work, and have a great sence of touch/feel and estimating (because I modify computers as a hobby), so I don't think it should take me more than 30 minutes to pick it. I am defenetly a newbie, and have picked only one or two padlocks before. So my question is, I am just cocky and confident, or could I actually pick it for the 1st time in less than 30 mins?

There's only one way to find out, isn't there?

Typically a weiser is not a difficult lock to pick. Depending on the pin differences, you could pick it in under a second, or not be able to pick it at all. If I were a betting man I would bet against a weiser everytime when there is a 30 minute time limit.

Indeed there is, but I'm now studying for a math exam, so it will have to wait until tomorrow. Can you guys tell me about your first experiences with house/ 5-pin tumbler locks. And yeah, I'm also a bit drunk right now .

Even drunk I'd bet on you vs. the Weiser in 30 minutes.

Lol, considering I've never picked a 3+ padlock, let alone never tried a 5-pin tumbler?

You should be able to accidentally open a weiser in 30 min.
