Got a new key to my gun room

[dhuze]

So I had to bring a couple locksets to the locksmith to have them all keyed alike. While I was there I noticed he had some novelty keys. I picked one out for the lock on my gun room.

I hope I remember what it goes to.

I don't know. That looks pretty scary. I'm think they should be banned so children cannot see it hanging from your key ring!!!

Pretty cool though.

 

[ToddDubya]

Too bad you can't carry it cocked and locked.

 

[76Too]

do you plan to use it for self defense?

 

[NickyB]

bahahahahaha

 

[Glockster30]

It better be MA compliant or you are screwed.

So.... now we all have keys to your gunroom, given a file and a blank

SC1. Nice.

No kidding. Most people blank out serial numbers when they post online, here is a perfectly-duplicatable key.

What's the combo to the safe?


I do like the gun-key, though. Very cool.

What are the numbers? I have the actual photo and I cant read them.

Plus you need to know where I live, work faster than my alarm, get into the room, open the safe, and get away. Oh and hope like hell I'm not home. I can guarantee at least one neighbor is home at any given time and sometimes my wife and almost always the dog.

Schlage "C" keyway FTW.

I bet you wouldn't get thorough TSA with that novelty key.

The dog can be neutralized with a steak.

Don't worry, I'm not dumb enough to try anything.

Maybe I've seen too many spy movies where they press a key into a bar of soap and then make a duplicate.

I see you got the mass compliant version with 6 teeth. If it was over 10 you'd be looking at 5 years hard time.

We will find out.

The numbers can be derived by measuring the photo. It looks like the 5 pin "C" keyway (most common residential Schlage).

Back in college I knew guys that did exactly that and it worked.

Someone could actually make a usable key from that picture if they are patient enough with a file.

You mean you can't do that?

Very cool, but in my case with a child i wouldn't want her to be attracted to the key or have it be a dead give away

 

[Lcstyle]

your key is a 5 barrel tumbler lock. showing the key bitting makes it easy for an amateur to pick it in less than a few minutes with some basic tools.

Can I recommend an upgrade to an abloy protec 2 like this one?

I would get a glock key instead, Might be more reliable opening your gun room.

Sooo many things to be learned from NES...

 

[familyman15]

If it was a glock, theyd sue for percentage of everyone sold

 

[Gibbs]

... I'm think they should be banned...

Wait for it...

Thanks for posting. We all need to be reminded that a key part of our security plan is our control of the codes and keys.

If a code - or a key - is ever available to someone else, it should be presumed to have been compromised.
