Electrical problem
2000 Pontiac Grand Am 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic

So i tried all of the other steps used to try and low budget fix my ignition lock and get it to become unstuck and no luck. Before i give in and spend all the money to have it replaced i have a question. Since my key does NOT have a chip in it could it be possible to have a locksmith have a go at trying to turn it over and maybe refit the key?
