ABUS No. 72/40 Picked

This morning I picked the ABUS No. 72/40, the lock that arrived with the GEGE AP3000.
It felt great, hearing the shackle pop open, and It was an annoying lock too. The pins just kept un-setting. I ended up using tonnes to much pressure to keep the pins there, but still, it did open in the end.

If anyone who reads this has picked this lock, comment down below and tell us how you did it.

GEGE AP3000

Well, my GEGE AP3000 arrived today, and boy was I happy!
I bought it from member Squelchtone from LockPicking101
It was a very reasonable price, $49US for the lock and shipping to Australia, and he even threw in another lock for me, an ABUS No. 72/40 padlock (one with an extra-long shackle and a SFIC).

I still haven't picked the GEGE yet, but I'm hoping to accomplish this soon, and once I've done that, I'll have a shot at the ABUS padlock. Just to give you an idea of the complexity of the GEGE Ap3000, here's a picture of the internal workings of the lock:

It has 5 pins, 4 of which are serrated, some of those serrated pins have floating pins within them, and the other pin appears to be a normal pin. But I'm betting it isn't. Then there's a ball-bearing which slides along a groove in the key for no apparent reason, and there's also a little cog-wheel in there that slots into holes in the key. Oh, and it has a paracentric keyway. So yeah, shouldn't be too hard to pick [/sarcasm].

Pics time!:
First, the GEGE AP3000:


And the ABUS No. 72/40:
