works better than expected – Manual Pick Gun (5-Piece Set) Reviews

Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:more than 1 month

Pros:
cheap, actually works after you learn to use it. usually quicker than manual picks. pops file cabinet and similar locks super quickly.
Cons:
loses screws holding it together and holding in tip. Noisy as all hell
Other:
great item. it does work with practice even on commercial locks. can usually do it with manual picks also, but this bounces the pins faster. works well at an angle if the keyway is crooked
Bottomline:
worth it. great item. it does work with practice even on commercial locks. can usually do it with manual picks also, but this bounces the pins faster. works well at an angle if the keyway is crooked
