Hello,

Did we ever find out what happened to this lock, I am very interested as i was not aware of a regular master lock that you could spin the core 180 degrees. It makes sense that if the core had been spun 180 degrees the driver pins have fallen into the slot for the key and "relocked" the core, but then the hasp should also be open not locked. If this lock is still stuck then i would love to know what has been found out about it. The only other thing i could think of would be "Key Control" pins, but again i have never heard of these on this series of master lock. OP please give us an update.

I know, i have been a slacker. I have not posted anything in a while, but i have been collecting locks and picking them. Life has just been crazy. I am hoping to get back into the swing of things and be more active again.
