Does this actually exist??

Tool recommendations, information on your favorite automatic and/or mechanical lockpicking devices for those with less skills, or looking to make their own.

Does this actually exist??

Postby Loki13outlaw » 26 Jun 2012 22:44

I saw this lock picking device on an animated series years ago and my sister swears shes seen real ones for sale..
It looked like a blank key that when inserted in a lock would mimic the inside of the lock and take the shape of the key needed to open it, then there was some release you could press on the key to make it look like a blank key again so it could be used on another lock...
Sorry if its hard to understand, but does one actually exist?
And it isn't a bump key, that's what everyone has thought I meant when I ask this question elsewhere lol

The same people that make those also make that goop that you can squirt into a cylinder and when it's dry it's the shape of the key that fits the lock. They also make master keys that fit every car and one that fits every padlock. They used to sell brass magnets too, but they have been out of stock for a while now.

:lol:

I don't remember the technical term for them but you could ask any real locksmith that you come across. They all have this stuff. I think they buy it as part of their master locksmith kit.

If they act like they don't know what you're talking about, they are not a real master or they are just acting like they don't know because they don't want to let their secrets out.

one of the most informative ive seen as well, i cant wait until i find out if my locksmith buddy is a master. I sure hope he's not going to try and act like hes not cause im sure he is. Will report back on this, unless he absolutely swears me to secrecy.

The  special goo is called Tactical Goo available most places that use the term "Tactical" in every item description. Do a search for tactical bird feeders , tactical flower pots, or tactical lawn furniture .
To confuse the general public it is often disguised as hummingbird nectar.. the red works very well,but the clear variety is the most effective   You can purchase in liquid or powder form. 
Pm me for a free interior design consultation. Bay Area preferred but willing to travel.

You better go find a nice rock to hide under. The ALOA ( you know... "Those guys") is going to hunt you down for giving away trade secrets like that. :shock:

my guy...

Postby atticRR » 7 Jul 2012 20:00

my guy was pretty cagey, wouldnt say much. He did mutter something about 'humming bird saliva' or something like that as i led him from the bar after getting him blitzed. Other than that, nothing. I was actually using a tactical voice stress analyzer (basically a lie detector) and although he would admit nothing, all his denials indicated very high stress levels indicating a probable lie. Will keep on this because i want to know more.

You guys can have all the tactical goo. I'm waiting for 2octops to tell us where to score some brass magnets.

the new handshake is just a normal looking handshake with the middle finger folded inside so you can scratch the finger tip in the guys palm. Keep it secret.....

Shouldn't this thread be moved to the restricted forums? It is one thing to discuss the existence of top-level tactical items like goo,brass magnets, and birdbaths. It is another thing altogether to reveal to any kid with an internet connection how to obtain these things. Reckless and irresponsible in my view.
