Your not an idiot we all started the same as you the only difference is we can see your mistakes because of RU-vid just keep going mate it will come 👍🔑
the front screw adjust the swing. so you fire it inside and then let go of the tension to hear how many pins you drop and then adjust the screw a little and try again. then you get a feeling for what way to tune it. I always end up back with the manual gun. and still after a few shots adjust the spring as I listen to pins dropping when letting go of the tension
I find pick guns to be reasonably successful but singe locks just won't open with them. That was fun watching you have a go and learn as you worked your way through those locks.
Don’t judge the performance of the gun on my ineptitude to use it lol to be fair the locksmith I borrowed it from said he uses the Kronos gun in preference to this one thanks for watching 👍🏻
Don't give up like every tool a pick gun also needs training. Play around with tilt and positioning and rotation. Also move the needle slightly in and out of the cylinder(not fully just 10mm or so). Also play around with how long you press the button. To variate the frequency a bit. Try constant tension. Should you find a position on a cylinder where anti picking pins always engage, than keep that position and do a pulsing tension.
