Finally got my hands on a S&G Environmental

Just curious, how did you remove the roll pin from yours? And mine also appears to have the chrome peeling off the shackle, body is in excellent shape, first thing I noticed when I got it was the disks appeared very scratched up, probably from previous picking attempts

The first one I was drilling the pin, and it started to spin, so I was able to pull it out. The second one, I wanted to see if I could drill through the cap, and it was possible with little effort, I could then push the pin out. I did ruin the cap though, so that's disappointing. I think your needle file method would work with most of these locks.

Here's where to drill, if you're so inclined:

I have used 1/16" drill bits to extract tiny roll pins from locks before. They also make some pretty small extractors for tiny screws.

The screw extractors are a good idea, I would have used one of those if I had had a small enough one to thread into the center of the roll pin.
