BBE wroteActually the one in the picture above isn’t broken. It was a bicycle lock and the multiple notches in the shackle were a way to adjust the length of the shackle when locked Just be careful not to insert it fro he wrong side/end as you may not be able to remove it.
BBE.
Whoops my mistake I was looking at the thumbnail on my phone I didn’t enlarge it yes that is for sure not broke.
The one I have is just a regular one and it pulls out too. The pointed end and the beveled notch above it looks like it was made to push aside a flat spring retainer and snap into the notch. The piece of flat worn mangled metal retailer you see in the picture was in the lock.
Thought maybe someone here had one like this and was able to find a easy way to repair it.
