I could open my dads garage padlock with a well placed .22 pellet from a webley excel.

Didn't damage it but the impact released the catch.

I think demo ranch went too heavy.....

Most movies seem to use cheaper cast body locks...they give themselves a mission in that video by using a high quality lock..,,Would be good advert for the lock maker though... ;)
