My friend found this odd safe in his house

I couldn't find anything on it, it seems to be an outdated safe. Any information would be appreciated.

He doesn't seem very interested, but this thing spiked my curiosity. Apparently the previous owners didn't know what was inside either, and never bothered to check either.

A google search resulted in a good bit of information. Try google or direct to www.mesasafe.com They show a section for obtaining your lost or forgotten combination

Couldn't find this safe on their website :/

Contact them with the serial number of your safe, and offer to include a photo. What you have may be an earlier version of a current model. With the serial number, they may be able to search records and have the original combination. Worth a phone call

Ah ok, thanks. Will be contacting them soon

Since it is not *your* safe, have the actual owner call Mesa and be ready for them to not be overly helpful, they cant tell over the phone if you're a new home owner or someone trying to get into their fathers gun safe or into grandma's Oxycontin. They may have you fill out paperwork signed by a notary public found here: http://www.mesasafe.com/customer-care/lostcombo.html or have a real locksmith who is on file with them come out and call them with the serial number, then they'll give the combo it was shipped with and hopefully it is still set to that factory number, and hasn't been changed over the last 20 years by a past owner or whoever installed it.

good luck,

I figured, my friend called them and went ahead and filled out the notary form before calling, they are going to have a locksmith on file come over and see what he can do.

Lagard lock...or at least dial with mesa sticker on it

cms. Safecraker-
Are you sure?
It looks like a cheap "Chinese" stamped disc type lock to me
But i have limited experience

Ngagetx any chance of an internal shot of the discs?

i would also suggest the lagard lock just by the dial and ring.
