Re: Oldfast Impressions
Hell with it... might as well post mine too now. LOL

I cannot remove the plug, nor can I rotate 180 to reach the rekey holes to drop the keypins. Maybe this is some type of 'oldschool' American core? This is the second time I've run into one. The first one I found was in an old Series 600 from 1977. And this 747 was made in '92.

So there's the two pins that are holding me up. Are they meant to be removed?
If they are... you'd probably have to have replacement pins for it -- for I'm
pretty certain I'd mangle the shit outta of em' getting them out.
