Good tip that I have known about for a while. Ray is right however. Be cautious about which keyways you use this on.
For the best book out there on high security locks and their operation, take a look at amazon.com for High-Security Mechanical Locks An Encyclopedic Reference. Written by our very own site member Greyman! A true 5 Star read!!

Raimundo, you're totally right. Gerry-rigging blanks is always a dubious prospect. I've only seen this done with Schlages but I assumed it could be done with Corbin, Dominion etc.. I don't think I'd try it with a Best/Falcon though!
