Not a big deal but popped am 1100

Was able to finally pop an 1100. Got it about a week ago after working various locks for practice. I'm stoked!

Edit: I should clarify, I got the lock a week ago. I just now popped it open 26 July 2026

Oooh, I didn't know there was a lockpicking comm here! I've never tried it but it seems like fun

Congrats on the victory! ☺️

I'm very new to the hobby. What made this lock difficult? Does it have a few false set pins?

Serrated key pins and various security pins.

That's devious

I think that's why its considered a milestone lock. Hence why I was excited! I don't participate in the LPU belts but I guess this is a milestone lock in the community.

Thanks! What a great hobby. I should have gotten into it years ago!

Fuck, I gotta get back in lockpicking

Hey congrats! I have a couple of these that I haven't tried since I bought them. My attempts at establishing a local lockpicking group have fizzled, but you've inspired me to try this lock again :)

Nice! I have a 5200 (same core, I think) and it was a pain. It's so easy to overset. I haven't pulled it apart to see what it's got for pins.

If its the same it'll have serrated key pins and various security pins. I'm so bad at putting them back together. I ruined my first 1100. Its jammed and I can't get the key out. 🤣🤣
