This is by far in my own experience the quickest and most reliable method to open keyed locks and it's real easy to learn. Get yourself a jiggler pick (it's late so I'll upload pictures tomorrow and more detailed info) and wrench, insert into keyway and..

1. experiment with tension on the wrench as each lock is different, tension is key to all lock picking

2. think of the motion a see saw makes, up and down with a center fulcrum point right? good

3. make this motion with the pick (ensure your pick is all the way in the lock with the last bump on the pick just disappearing inside past the outer pin) quickly. I have found the faster this is done the easier it is to get locks open.

I'll upload some video's I have of this technique whenever I get up, should help you all understand what I'm talking about a lot better than just my explanation.

Ok I apologize for taking a few days to get back to this I have been working a lot. Anyway here is a video I found more than a year ago about the jiggling method. The video is very easy to understand and should help a lot more than just me trying to explain the method. I have been picking locks for many years but this video helped raise my efficiency more than 50% and reduce my picking time dramatically. If you cannot view the video just send me your email in a PM and I'll send the video to you. This method works on padlocks of many types, most door locks and even car door locks if you use the right pick. Hope this helps

*edited* oh yes, here is a picture of what a jiggler pick looks like up close

that video is fine and well, but 3 of those locks all use the same keyway and i'd put money that the "magnum" does as well. if it works on one M1 keyways i would expect it to work on all. different brands/ keyways would be ideal for a promo vid
