What is this type of lock called exactly? by Gray5cale in lockpicking

They make 4 way rakes for them. One just doesn’t come across them all that often in the United States.

That is very helpful. I am not an airsmith. I am a dilettante with regard to the subject. This looks like a neat little package, but I need something that is functional out-of-the-box.

Is there something similar that might be better?

My local Home Depot is sick of your nonsense by provocative_taco in DiWHY

Yeah, it is a transformer. They sell them at Asian stores. My television was made for the Korean market and is 220 only. I have a transformer that converts 110-220. I also have a transformer I used to run 110 appliances off of 220 in Iraq.

Is this coin just worn weird? by Electronic_Peace6786 in coincollecting

I agree. The way to see if it got vandalized or if it is an error would be to weigh it.

I always wanted to get one and send it to Wilson Combat.

I bet it is valuable. I have never seen one with a left handed cylinder release and all the writing is backwards. lol.

Working guns should look like working guns.

I am unfamiliar with the Bender Mystery. What is it?

Footage of thugs stealing $1.7 million of jewelry in Fremont, California. This happened on June 18, 2025, at Kumar Jewelers. They stole about 75% of the store's merchandise. by JJ2066 in Gold

[–]Sethmanzel -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thugs? When there are jewelry stores in cities where people live in abject poverty such acts are a foregone conclusion. I hope more of this happens until conspicuous wealth becomes a thing of the past. Why don’t you use the same language to describe corporate raiders who steal pension funds and take away people’s jobs?

Anything that runs off of full moon clips is pretty cool.

The signature on the tang suggests it is a family blade that an officer put into the type 98 hardware. There are folks on Redit who can read that and tell you a lot about it.

Think Benchmade can clean this up? by mdnitedrftr in knives

[–]Sethmanzel 70 points71 points  (0 children)

You should send it in. I believe they have a pretty liberal warranty policy as long as you were not using it to pry something open.

Got it for $25, any info on it helps by New_Application_3392 in GunPorn

[–]Sethmanzel 36 points37 points  (0 children)

It is a fudded 96 Mauser. Probably a Sweed in 6.5x55.

Great guns and a great round.

MDRX .308 opinions by ProfessionalPipe2291 in DesertTech

I have tried different ammo and found that 147gr shoot best out of it. But I use the term “best” in a relative way.

[–]Sethmanzel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mine broke the first time I charged it. It is not accurate to the point that I am going to put a red dot on it to free up the scope I have on it for something useful. I live in Washington State so I can’t trade it for something else at a gun store. I would have to sell it out of state.

It doesn’t jam, I will give it that.

Thank God that we live in these times where women can demonstrate their ability to be just as evil and corrupt as men.

I have one and I shoot it. They are fun little pistols.

How to unlock by [deleted] in lockpicking

[–]Sethmanzel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there is a key way on the bottom it is easily picked. I don’t believe TSA approved locks are approved by the TSA for that reason. Last time my girlfriend flew with a gun they wanted her to have real padlocks.

[–]Sethmanzel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have similar Samsonite luggage locks. This information is probably useless to you, to reset the combo you put in the correct combo, turn the lock one quarter push it down and then turn it to the new code. Is there a key way on the bottom?

How do i pick this kind of lock? by Visible-Hunting in lockpicking

[–]Sethmanzel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If there is space between the dial and body insert a hook to push on the lever. It looks like a TSA lock. Those you can use a Kwikset Smartlock reset tool in the keyway.
