    Default DOH! Help!!

    I put an action lock on my 10/22 a while ago - over a year - one that goes through the mag well and action then loops down and back into the lock. I dug it out, and none of the keys I have/can find open the lock. How can I go about getting the lock off without damaging my firearm?
    Thanks!

    Thought about that, don't have any though. I'll see what they have at Wally World this afternoon.

    An angle grinder would work too.

    Is there enough slack in the cord to just cut it with bolt cutters? If you go that round, I have another of those loop pad locks that you can have.

    I think so, I just don't have bolt cutters. I have plenty of the padlocks/loop locks, so I'm not worried about being down one, I was just curious if there was a different way to go about it. I tried Ken's lock picking video, not much luck tho....key entrance is too small.
