'It's pretty tough to beat this Fort Knox pistol box — and I mean that literally. With its thick 10-gauge steel body and 3/16' wrap-around door, it would take some big-time hammering to make even a dent. That's the kind of protection you need to have your favorite handgun nearby but safe from sticky fingers.' John Dean Owner, Dean Safe Strength and Reliability are two words that best describe this beautifully crafted Pistol Box. With a thick 10-gauge steel body and a 3/16' wrap-around door, this safe is not only practically impossible to break open but it would be insanely difficult to even dent this handgun safe. The heavy duty tamper-resistant hinge is placed under the door to protect it from attack, yet the gas strut makes it easy to lift the heavy door and have it hold itself open for easy access. It features the tried and true Simplex push-button mechanical lock which is fast and easy to use with the potential of 1,081 different combinations.

Probably the most important thing to know, when picking a lock, is how the lock works. The common pin-and-tumbler has 3 main parts- a hollow, outer cylinder- - the tumbler (the inner cylinder) – and a set of pins.

The pins are varying lengths and each pin sits in a shaft, running through the tumbler and the outer cylinder, to prevent the tumbler from turning. All of the pins are in two pieces, a top and bottom section, when the key is inserted the seam between the top and bottom pins align with the seam between the outer cylinder and the tumbler. When the seams are aligned the tumbler can be turned and the lock is opened.

When picking a lock you have to use a pick to move all of the pins into the correct position while keeping tension on the lock with a tension wrench. Step 2: Step 1. The first step is to insert the tension wrench into the lock and turn it the same direction that you would turn the key. There are two ways to pick a lock-- you can move each pin into place one at a time or you can use the technique called raking, raking a lock is not as precise and usually requires finishing by picking the last of the pins that do not fall into place-- when raking the lock you insert the pick to the back of the lock then pull it quickly out pushing all of the pins up while applying tension (this is the technique I started with in the video). Step 3: Step 2. I think I watched to much MacGyver as a kid because somehow I knew how to do this, I shocked a few people last summer when I was able to pick a lock open when they had lost their keys. I also am pretty good about popping the lock on a car who's keys are left inside.
