Most gun locks are free and useless
Kids are curious
I've seen some decent ones for vehicles, but they are still easy to pick
What?
Better be safe than sorry about a dead kid
Yeah that's why you have a safe
@Iain_an_séú As a hobby lockpicker I can tell you that 99% of locks are easy to pick
Hey me too
I love locksport
Even the most namebrand locks are sometimes extremely easy to pick, just because assembly line puts a randomised bidding into them
That means - some locks will be randomly very-pick-friendly
Yeah and most companies don't use security pins
You can get extremely-hard-to-pick locks
Those exist too
I know
But the caveat is that they cost a lot or are not easy to get
True I've got a few ABUS padlocks around the house, they were pretty expensive
And ABUS isn't too of the line really
Normal locks will do their job most of the time though

True
I picked my sister's luggage in 1 second flat
She forgot the code and needed to get in
That padlock had like 0 protection and I could reach the relase lever right away
The amazement and shock on her face were entertaining
> she lrealised that her lock was not worth shit all this time while she was putting thousands of dollars worth of jewelry on her trips in there
You should see what happens when you unlock someone's car, or impression a key for their house
They get pissed
My friend lost a key to his bicycle chain
He tried cutting and snipping it, but it was all futile
I lockpicked it in 2 seconds
then get a code lock u idiot
Abus lock, but by chance it had some very easy bidding
I also routinely lockpicked the university lockers back in the days
Abus isn't perfect, they used to have that back of keyway bypass
They still might actually
People would put their keys into the locker and slam the door shut, and it locks automatically
Those lockers with short keys are laughably easy to open with just a raking bit
