For those who don't know, the control pin is a deadlocking pin, meaning you can't manually push that pin in to release it from whatever housing it may be in.
the hunt is on. just need to find something at the right price. just managed to get a Lockwood 270S70 at a ridiculously cheap price. hoping for similar luck with a mul-t-lock.
I see... Let me know if you want to arrange a trade for some MTL's, along with something generic which could be a good pin-in-pin starter lock. I could spare a few... ;-) I'm always looking for some more lockwoods (bonus points for V7's and Twins).
Already have those two 334/B45's sitting in a box ready for you. Working now on getting another Twin... hopefully next week some time. Will message you and let you know what else I can manage to stuff in a box. Finding locks for you is like finding a gift for the person who has virtually everything. ;)
LOL... Sorry. :-P Tracking tells me that I have an interesting lock waiting for me when I get home... 6 trap pins! With any luck, I will have another nice video tomorrow.
wow I didn't realize MTL made those FSIC/SFIC style locks. Great use of that weird "pick" I have that exact same chinese pick that came with some dimp style picks. Nice jobe and thanks!
Great video. Thanks for sharing. Was a magnet involved? I thought I saw one on the key and something inside the cylinder. I’m new to this and was wondering what I’m actually looking at. Thanks for any comments.
5:40 "It's something that you'd think is absolutely useful but I have that it is useful in so many strange application". I think you meant useless the first time.
Thanks. As for rotating the ring, look at the tray when I have everything apart. You can see the notch in the inside of the control ring at the top... that notch has a hole in the middle with a pin through it. That pin goes through the ring and into the spring-loaded locking lug that holds the core in the housing. When I rotate the keyway such that the open part is aligned with that notch, I have complete access to the notch and the pin. I put that large tool through to the back of the keyway and press it into that notch. Pressing the tool into the notch pushes the pin up (which allows the locking lug to move freely). Then I rotate the ring by twisting the tool. The rotation of the ring pushes the pin to the side. since the pin goes through the locking lug, that lug retracts and frees the lock from the housing. I hope that is helpful. It's much easier to understand when you have the lock in your hand.
Nice pick as always. I should be able to do that with my Yale. I can't see why not. Just difficult to get that last pin when you're balancing it so you have it picked but don't wat to lose any of it.
LockPickingLawyer yeah but I had my mind set on a better lock.. better than the already good MLT.. but man.... I felt bad that I didn't invest in him lol.. but I just want him to in what I ordered.. I didn't know getting somebody to install your locks came with so much crap attached to it.. now I am going to call somebody else.
Fascinating lock. Thanks for taking the time to explain its operation so well. I have never seen a lock like it before.
Thanks.
You understand locks brilliantly! make it look so easy. I need to practice a lot.
Thanks -- and practice is, indeed, the key.

Hi Harry, A new lock to me .. well picked, well explained, and extremely well executed. Thank you. Regards, Brian.
Thanks Brian. I'm assuming they don't have this format in Australia?
Hi Harry, I had never seen this setup Down under - found it very interesting. Regards, Brian.
What a cool lock. Great picking brother and thanks for sharing it!
Another great and detailed video. Thank you. Even though these things scare me, the more I watch you pick them the more I can't wait to try one.
Thanks... and jump in! These locks really are not as bad as you might think.

Noctis Motus Sounds good. We'll talk soon. Start thinking about what you want other than MTL's.
That's it. I'm done watching your videos. Tired of getting jealous of all the sweetness you have ;). Another great vid and learned about MTL IC cores.
LOL... Sorry. :-P Tracking tells me that I have an interesting lock waiting for me when I get home... 6 trap pins! With any luck, I will have another nice video tomorrow.
That was pretty awesome you really know your locks. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks.
@@lockpickinglawyer This vid finally showed me how pin in pin locks work .. mazing stuff!
Nice picking and you really make it look easy sir. Notes taken and thumbs up.
Thanks.
Nice picking and a nice detailed explanation of the workings yet again, great stuff.
Thanks.
Gotta come back for the classics. I’d hate to pick this nasty lock. But then again, I can’t even pick an Atlas home bolt that was 12$ at menards
Well LPL, I guess we have a similar voice 'cause my google assistant just told me "here are the results for nothing on one" hahaha
Modest pelican gaming has the same voice. Australian accent
Awesome job picking. That control trick worked very nice :-)
Thanks.
wow I didn't realize MTL made those FSIC/SFIC style locks. Great use of that weird "pick" I have that exact same chinese pick that came with some dimp style picks. Nice jobe and thanks!
Thanks. That pick has come in handy so many times. For some a worthless piece of crap, this is the third video in which it made an appearance.
Excellent picking and explanation of control for that lock! Really enjoyed this video :-)
Thanks.
Masterfully as always. Well done.
Thank you.
So, how did a VP put his key in and pull the core out and spill its guts? Thanks for the video. Now I know how to put this back together.
GREAT video and picking job.
Thank you.
Marvellous stuff, very interesting 👍
Thanks.
nicely explained as always!
Thanks.
Very nice picking !
Can you make a video for the others application of the "special pick" that you say ?
Thanks very much
+In 2 DODO Thanks... the pick has appeared in past videos. 84 and 87 come to mind immediately. There may be others.
Amazing picking ! Thanks
Excellent video, thank you. Is this also possible on The Schlage?
I guess I should've read the comments before I asked my question. Found the answer. Thanks again.
Thanks, and probably. Depends on the keyway, but it works on all the FSIC lock I have.
Great video. Thanks for sharing. Was a magnet involved? I thought I saw one on the key and something inside the cylinder. I’m new to this and was wondering what I’m actually looking at. Thanks for any comments.
5:40 "It's something that you'd think is absolutely useful but I have that it is useful in so many strange application".
I think you meant useless the first time.
Thanks for cracking the case, Sherlock.
Really informative video thanks
Thanks.
Excellent, but I seem to miss how you rotate that ring with the pin in it. It does not look like it (the pin) retracts.
Thanks. As for rotating the ring, look at the tray when I have everything apart. You can see the notch in the inside of the control ring at the top... that notch has a hole in the middle with a pin through it. That pin goes through the ring and into the spring-loaded locking lug that holds the core in the housing. When I rotate the keyway such that the open part is aligned with that notch, I have complete access to the notch and the pin. I put that large tool through to the back of the keyway and press it into that notch. Pressing the tool into the notch pushes the pin up (which allows the locking lug to move freely). Then I rotate the ring by twisting the tool. The rotation of the ring pushes the pin to the side. since the pin goes through the locking lug, that lug retracts and frees the lock from the housing. I hope that is helpful. It's much easier to understand when you have the lock in your hand.
Great pick, how easy did you make control look. Very interesting and informative as usual. 👍
Thanks, and control is easy since the keyway is so wide open!
You sir, are ridiculous!
Thank you... I think.
Note to self: never install this lock upside down.
genius
I don't know about genius, but thanks. It's kind of obvious once you take a hard look at the mechanism.
Nice pick as always. I should be able to do that with my Yale. I can't see why not. Just difficult to get that last pin when you're balancing it so you have it picked but don't wat to lose any of it.
Thanks. It should work so long you can get a tool through the warding that is strong enough to move the spring-loaded control ring.
this locksmith just tried to pressure me into buying his mul t lock brand lol......i bought abloy locks.... i just want the guy to install them.
MTL isn't that bad. people like me are few and far between. THat said, Abloy is probably better.

have you ever opened the abloy protect 2
