Looky looky. It's our fav firearms friend, Laird!

couldn't it be nonmagnetic steel? that would make more sense for a locking mechanism anyways.

@@ruben307 If there's anything in the sides it's probably a zinc casting. The back plate probably just supports the shackle when locked so you can't just grab the lock and twist. Which... you might actually still be able to do.

@@ruben307 that's more expensive than magnetic steel. I expect that it's a zinc casting (zinc having the same density as iron, so it's decently heavy).

@@ScottKenny1978 I think it can be expensive and cheap steel depending on why it is not magnetic.

Every episode "I have this tool that me and bosnian bill made" followed by NPL pulling out all manor of horrific lock smashing devices

I wonder what protection LPL's manor would have, assuming he has one.

Is it a saw? A screwdriver? Wait... A spoon.

Mine also splits wood.

My tool for opening all padlocks, has no cord ,is yellow and has a fast spinny thing at one end.

At least you ruled out * that's a start.

Token Civilian that's not a high bar to clear

@@rickastley885 True. But then again, this one took longer than many of the locks LPL has to actually pick.

It also required no tools or skills. It's a much lower bar to entry (pun intended) than raking.

Yes but I think he was also alluding to the fact the with the plastic body you could immediately pop the catch with a big screwdriver. This was the non destructive method.

You can rake master locks? Mine just springs open when I put the rake in, I never got to actually rake it...

There are 330 possible 4 digits codes. And if you can choose any number of digits (except 0), you have 2047 possible code.

@@EnteiFire4 that's not a lot

11*10*9*8/4! = 330 Any one of the eleven "digits", any one of the remaining ten, any one of the remaining nine and any one of the remaining eight. Without the factorial, 1234 and 4321 would be different codes.

You may choose from 0-9 and * . That's 11 digits, which results in 11*10*9*8=7920 possible 4-digit codes. On average that means that an attacker would have to press ~20k buttons (counting the reset button), which - in my opinion - would be sufficient. EDIT: This reasoning is wrong - while it does not allow for using the same digit twice, it does not disregard the different permutations

@UCcszy43LwnSs3qM3IOxznwg you should divide 7920 by 4*3*2 because the order doesn't matter

Pack of Singapore noodles would be even more impressive

I thinking well done is better for picking though

This is the Lockpicking Lawyer, and today we have a feast for you, or rather, me. What we have here is the Masterlock 99DSPT cable lock intended for securing a firearm such as this SIG SAUER P210. As you can see, the cable runs through the bolt, preventing it from being loaded or discharged. However it has a serious flaw. Over here you can see I have a nice steak dinner, which provides me with a variety of means of opening the lock without the use of the key. The steak is cooked rare, and when sliced, provides enough juice to thoroughly douse the lock. Now we simply take our salad spoon and give the lock a sharp rap on the side, and the lock opens without fuss, providing full access to the firearm. Just to show you this wasn't a fluke, we will repeat the process a couple more times...

five minutes isnt even the length of the video

@@Squishrug You expect your average thief to be as good as the lock picking lawyer? Fool.

​@@Konranjyoutai like LPL explained the paper was for the video so we can follow the logic. I've done this before it takes way less time once you've done it even once or twice. Though more practice is always helpful

@@DDvargas123 It isn't any less suspicious for some guy to be crouched in front of a door for five minutes without a note pad either.

The Squire padlock that took AP rounds and still didn't open?

This comment deserves sooo much more likes!!!

It’s not a bad product. The clutch in the knob makes decoding pretty tricky... possible, but far harder than this box.

I'd like to see him try the SentriLock.

@@lockpickinglawyer "Not a bad product" - Basically an endorsement ;)

Body of c500 does appear to be cast zinc, but enough of it to make it fairly robust I suspect

@@ppeppe It’s roughly 5x thicker than most of these boxes, and it also has a substantial steel liner.

He's already done that. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/geCSapec36yleac.html

Check videos [392], [429]. and [507].

That poor Master Lock never saw it coming

*Casually hacks into Norton security system*~

mmhmm... I see.... and what are the odds that you *haven't* attempted to decode it by now? ;)

You're in a coma and we're trying breakthrough medical technology to communicate with you, you need to wake up!

spends too much time with locks :(

Well, he did move recently. 🤷‍♂️

keep it in your pants sparky!

She's definitely binding

@@DanceySteveYNWA Hilarious

in about half the cases a lock keeps the bad people out. the other half of the time it just makes what they're doing more obvious to observers in the area. Even if the lock doesn't keep you out, others can call the cops if they see you fiddle with the lock box for a few minutes before opening it and going inside. OTOH, things like vending machines out in the hood need to be engineered more for defense since they may have to endure extended assault.

Always great when LPL posts a vid just when you need to break in

If he was a divorce lawyer that'd be a decent business plan.

Wow, that's actually enough of a reason to never set that as a code on one of these boxes. Good eye.

*shake my head my head* i think you mean otherwise.

Shaking my head my head

I don’t get how someone dislikes either but it’s not like it affects his channel due to how big he is

Maybe a product Manager who was informed about LPLs Test?

Probably MasterLock, they probably just dislike all his vids by reflex.

To be fair, he also doesn't tend to *show* how to pick most locks. He just picks them on camera, we don't really see the internals as he picks them or what he's feeling for.

maybe, if you have the right touch. I didn't.

They are sold for opening inventory control tags.

@@lockpickinglawyer Thank you! I've ordered two!

The paper and pen aid helps teach a lot of people like me who get confused too easily.

I'm dumb. I found it.

I've read it first as "reactor lock box".

@@blasphemoustrat Is it one of the SentriLock electronic ones? I'd love to see him try that.

@@HariSeldon913 it is one of those. Bluetooth capable and everything.

Same, it got recommended to me after watching it haha

Rules out most of the strong ones, though. Stainless steel is non magnetic, but more expensive than plain carbon steel. Zinc doesn't rust like iron does, and is the same density. But it's melting point is so low that it's trivial to cast (or melt in the field)

@@ScottKenny1978 Yeah, but you rule out the possibility of somebody being stupid enough to make a lock like this out of titanium.

@@hueyiroquois3839 I only rule out the possibility of it being made from titanium and not screaming it proudly. Because there's no way they'd be able to sell a chunky lock made from titanium at steel prices and make any money. Stuff is seriously about 100x the cost of steel, per unit weight.

He had to move slowly, so as not to break anything accidentally.

Deciding this way is more time consuming than taking a 16oz hammer to it.

yo mama

I have the feeling if he wasn't explaining for us, it would have been much faster.

I don't think breaking the shackle itself would do a lot of good. The purpose of this isn't to secure anything closed, the purpose is to hold a key.

@@DJgodrocks2 Yeah. The shackle in this is just to keep it in one place and stop casual theft, or just to hang it somewhere. Not an excuse for it being shitty, because someone could just take the lockbox and decode it at their leisure, but it does make it less egregious because it's one of the lower-importance parts of the thing.

@@DJgodrocks2 you still want the shackle to hold it to whatever it's locked to.

Yeah, but you can pretend to look at a piece of paper, look like a real estate agent, and figure it out. Versus a bolt cutter. That said, I think you could pull out a short bolt cutter and get in quickly and it is unlikely someone would just be happening to look out the window? I suppose if you're caught, having a bolt cutter on your person is one more charge and therefore more time? Then again, what high value stuff are you able to walk out of the house with and back to your car that you don't look like you're stealing something? IMO, you would have to know that they keep valuables in a safe, what the combination is or have a quick means of penetrating it. Realize that fence operations give thieves pennies on the dollar. A $1000 monitor gives a hundred bucks maybe? and it looks like a theft as you carry it back to your car/truck. (I know this because I worked with criminals for a half-century as a doctoral-level therapist. I also grew up in a tough neighborhood and while I never stole anything, I did have friends that I later found out did because they went to jail as adolescents. None of the friends I grew up with went to college.....) Rather than stealing, go to school, learn a trade, work hard, and you can have stuff, raise a family, whatever you want, and just as importantly, not go to prison, especially as an adult :-) .
