Until the springs force the driver pins back into the cylinder, the lock cylinder is momentarily unobstructed.The same physical principles are involved in lock bumping, but the snap gun automates the transfer-of-energy process. A correctly applied snap gun can open a lock very quickly compared to traditional lock picking, but the sharp impact is more likely to damage the lock mechanism than raking, which mimics normal key movements. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lock_picking- Pin-Tumbler Locks: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pin_tumbler_lock- Lockpick/Snap Gun: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pin_tumbler_lock http://www.lockwiki.com/index.php/Pick_gun- Pick Gun Diagrams: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pin_tumbler_lockA pin tumbler lock contains a set of key pins and a set of driver pins.

The tension should be very light. %PDF-1.4 %����
