Addendum to The Locks O' Truth:
I am often asked the question: "Don't you know that the way you shot the locks is not the "best" way to break a lock?"
Answer: Of course I do. I was not trying to determine the "best" way to break a lock. To do that, the shooter should either shoot down onto the top of the lock body, or shoot the hasp itself.
What I was doing was testing the way locks are often shot in movies and TV shows to see if that would actually break or open the lock.
It so happens, that a few weeks ago I was watching the movie "Ronin" (a good one, BTW), and the bad guy was running down an alley trying to escape. He came to a locked gate. He pulled his 9mm pistol and shot the lock right in the body, just like I did.
