Found this on the way home from the park, the other day...

Don't know much about this lock, aside from the obvious. Is it known to have any security pins at all?

...and while unrelated to locks and picking, it is related to these forums:

When adding the picture attachments, I had to attach them in reverse order, because each additional attachment is placed before the previous one, and not after it, like it should be. Are there any plans to fix this?

I doubt there's sec. pins unless it's been repinned. at least my stock Schlage doesn't have any. That's a nice lock though even with the rusty shackle

The UP on that wafer is just to indicate which way it goes in. If you see the UP then it is going in the right way. The allen screw on the back of the lock when unscrewed enough iallows for the shackle to be removed when you turn the key. I have not dealt with the C keyway padlocks. I use mostly KS21 and KS41 padlocks because that is what my customer specifies.

I did pick a KS23 for a friend and it had no security.pins.

I knew what the allen key way for, but I didn't know it was used in conjuntion with a tured key, as I was able to remove the shackle without a key entirely. I can tell I'm going to have a hard time picking this though. Regardless of much tension I use, the springs still give.

Nice find. If you've got WD-40 to hand, just go ahead and use it. Lotta nonsense talked about it in my opinion.
