Thanks for all the time and effort ADMINS! and Members!!!
My name is Matt. I have have always been interested in Hacking, be it hardware or software. Anything and everything that can be manipulated to enhance my interaction with it draws me in like flies on s***. Picking or manipulating locks came to my attention a few years ago while off roading in northern CA. Long story short, a friend from the army showed me how ridiculous it was to spend money on any lock made by Master Lock, bypassing a forestry gate in under a min.(maybe less, I just remeber turning to get some water and looking back to see his stupid grin with an open lock in his hand). Ever since, I have been loosely addicted to lock manipulation, taking any opportunity I could to better my skills and understanding.
I found this forum after the purchase of a few safes that I bought online for 100 bucks each. A 1873 Hall's Safe and Lock Co. Floor Safe with a 4 number combo in OK shape but fully working...and locked. and a 1980s GSA Class 6 Field safe with a Mosler 302 Group 1r Lock (3 number combo) that came right out of service. It was open but no combo known.
If it were not for the insights and time of the members on this site I would have never been able to access and manipulate these devices with anything less then carbide drills or cutting torches.
Thank you!
I am greatfull
I hope I can contribute in the future but for now thanks for having me.
