A cylinder lock with a hollow cylindrical shell that defines a plurality of shell tumblerways and is longitudinally movable in a shell cavity defined by a housing. Received by the hollow shell is a plug that defines a keyway for receiving a proper key and a plurality of plug tumblerways aligned with the shell tumblerways. The plug is rotatable within the shell but is longitudinally restrained therein. A plurality of locking tumblers are accommodated by the aligned shell and plug tumblerways and are movable from biased locked positions into open positions by a proper key in the keyway. Also responsive to a proper key is a control tumbler that can be moved out of a biased, latched position into a release position. The control tumbler obstructs longitudinal withdrawal of the shell from the shell cavity when in its latched position and permits withdrawal when in its release position.
