  1. Do you have a pressure reducing valve on the main at the meter? (60psi is normal for municipal supply residential water service. Pressure will vary at different times of the day due to demand. 80psi is max allowed in any plumbing system in NJ, residential or commercial.) Is there a thermal expansion tank on the cold side of the water heater? If not, you need one. If there is, it probably has a ruptured bladder and needs to be replaced because it's now waterlogged. Shut off the main, relieve all the pressure from the system, and check the air charge on the tank, with a tire pressure gauge. It should be set to your static pressure, which in this case is 60psi. If it's not either add or remove air till it's at 60lbs. Then turn the water back on to the house. Problem solved, where do I send the invoice? You're welcome... lol Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk
  2. @almiz111 Keep an eye out for the next shotgun shootout at the Clinton WMA. We shoot all kinds of stuff there, including the type of shotty you have and other non trap/skeet guns like the Mossberg Shockwave. I'll say this though, I doubt you will be pleased with the performance of your shotty in it's current configuration. If you want to try it just for the sake of trying it, that is your prerogative. It can be useful to push a gun beyond it's practical limits to find out what it can't do. If your shotty is a Remington 870 or a Mossy 500 series, you may want to think about buying a longer (28"- 32")threaded barrel and a used set of furniture for those special non HD occasions. With all the kids tacticoolizing their grampy's shotguns, used stuff can be found at a pretty good price. We can talk more about this at the Trenton rally..... You are going, right?
  3. What is the elevation like where you are, is there a water tank that feeds you that is up a good bit higher in elevation than your house? I ask as we have a pressure regulator on the incoming line and if were to go bad I would expect to see the sort of thing you are seeing. Even your low static pressure seems to be very high for residential water service. Suggest you PM Deerslayer, he is an expert on this stuff.
  4. Sounds like you need his & her gun safes
  5. Me and @Cemeterys Gun Blob where at the one in Jersey City in 2011? I had a broken, single shot 20 gauge and a 12 gauge side by side that had a broken hammer. I got 300 bucks for two guns worth maybe 100 bucks. That money funded other guns.

  7. Costco used to be associated with AMEX some time back and then switched to Citi. Costco sells safes and ammo cans. I wonder if they're willing to lose Costco as a client. Regards, TokenEntry
  8. This crap is gonna grow and grow until it’s forced to the Supreme Court. And I agree “you’d be surprised” dumber has happened. They can’t deny a purchase that is a legal one. They can’t wake up one morning and say no card sales to anyone under 50 because there’s too many DWIs. It’s not there Call or legal right. This crap will come to a legal head.
  9. 30,000 gun related deaths per year, or 0.0009% of the population. • 65% of those deaths are by suicide, which would never be prevented by gun laws. • 15% are by law enforcement in the line of duty and justified. • 17% are through criminal activity, gang and drug related or mentally ill persons – better known as gun violence. • 3% are accidental discharge deaths. So technically, "gun violence" is not 30,000 annually, but drops to 5,100. ——————- 710,000 people die per year from heart disease. 200,000+ people die each year from preventable medical errors. 40,000+ die from a drug overdose 36,000 people die per year from the flu 34,000 people die per year in traffic fatalities 5,100 people die per year due to gun violence —————-
  10. I wish that I had some accounts with Citi, or their credit card.....so I could close them.
  11. I want to bring a little fun back to forums. So bear with me. You are king of an island. About the size of Puerto Rico, hilly, not too rugged with heavy forest on south and east edges about 5 miles inland, but mostly grass lands in interior. Temperate climate. One major airport, two ports, 4 large cities (>50k citizens) rest are farm to market hamlets. Total pop 275k. You have a Island Defense Force of 5000 soldiers. You have sufficiently supplied them with personal items, uniforms, boots, backs etc etc. Now you need to arm them. Using MSRP prices minus 25% for contract purchase (you might need a new master of coin) and a budget of 10mil. Arm them all. You can say 2000 per soldier... or 1000 on 500 and remainder on 4500... however you want to do it, but each soldier must have one sidearm and one long gun. oh... and a sharp tool. Ammo is not counted yet... that might be another question for later. Discuss Sent from my SM-G920P using Tapatalk

  13. And I would rather have 300 virgins that will - ok wait we're getting off track here.
  14. I heart @DeerSlayer jus talked to my guy. Granted most our stuff is hydronic radiant, and on demand. Lol, other then my house and some small Reno jobs we never come across stand alone water heaters. On demand no need bladder ( yes I know what an expansion tank is) . Love me some learning!
  15. Ok so at this point it looks like: I'm installing a pressure tank (ST12, unless you say otherwise.) Having the water peeps come out and replace the pressure valve, for safety's sake install a bib connection to plug in the pressure gauge I have, just to make keeping an eye on things easier. I just have to cut in to the cold line and T off of it. Wish I'd known about that a couple weeks ago, when I had to do exactly that to replace the idiot vampire tap on the hot side for the house humidifier. I would have done the cold side as well since I had the water shut off.
  16. Is all good man. Thanks! chart says 80gal and 60psi needs a 3.2gal tank at 150F max water temp. I'm 75gal on my water tank and 110F water temp. ST8 is 3.2gal and ST12 is 4.4gal. It's only $6 more so if it makes any sense to go bigger, I can.
  17. Ok i'm either an idiot or something else, but I can't find an ST10 anyplace. I can find an ST8 and an ST12 though. Hell I can't even find it on their web site.
  18. The regulator won't allow water pressure increases to push back to the street. It's like a check valve. So the pressure inside the system increases as a result, and you have issues like relief valves blowing off, or surging coming out of a faucet. With the tank it's like a big cushion for the now heated & expanding water to push into, keeping the static pressure the same in the system.

  19. Get them M4s and Glock 19s. Everyone doesn't need both. Plenty of change left over in your stated budget that could be used for other things.
  20. It is usually the smartest people that never get heard.
  21. see red answers. Question is... why am I seeing this problem NOW? As some additional data, the adjuster screw on the pressure regulator turned easily enough, and I was able to back the static pressure down to 50psi after a system "burp"... but as it's been sitting like that for about 10 minutes it's starting to climb and is now over 60psi, without the water heater coming on. I called NJ American Water and they're sending a tech out on wednesday to check things. I mentioned the meter being changed but not the pressure regulator.

  23. Tim of Military Arms Channel has just put out a video that includes YouTube gun channel policy. However, I recommend to watch the full video from the beginning to end as it discusses everything from gun legislation through Reddit. Video start at 10.57 regarding YouTube policy.

  26. He can burn up his lunch money all day at the R-14 rifle range with the HD setup. Eh, but there's rules there too. Slugs and buckshot only. Though I've seen folks shoot birdshot there from time to time, and the RSOs don't look twice.
  27. Bwhahahaha...... Oh, sorry.
  28. Lol! I think it’s the meter. My best guess. Anything else and I’d have to sleep on it at a holiday inn
  29. at top of tank: hot side 128F cold side 90F at underside of floor joists above tank: hot side 83F cold side 75F cold side is 75F 20 feet away from water tank as well. I have a super fancy infrared thermometer thingie from harbor freight
  30. What is the nature of threat? You would also need support weapons. Crew served machine guns, at least some mortars, anti-armor capability, some air defense weapons, and some artillery. You'll never beat off invaders with just small arms.
  31. Hard to say what options are available without knowing what rifle you are referring to. Is this a bolt action or SA rifle? One option I may suggest is if the rifle has a 1913 picatinny rail you can purchase a quick detach scope mount to adjust for eye relief and such. I don't think there is anyway around the issue without throwing money at it. Regards, TokenEntry
  32. I dunno how the Mrs. feels about rimfires. I seem to be in the minority here when it comes to loving precision rimfires. If my budget allowed, there would be at least an Anschutz 64 sitting in my safe now, but alas, my budget is more Marlin on sale than Anschutz. That said, a decent Marlin or Savage or CZ .22, decked out with decent glass and a few small upgrades are fun little guns and get you into 100+ yard shooting starting under $500. I run Lapua Center-X, which is expensive stuff ($13/50) *when compared to .22s* but not when compared to centerfire (Federal gold medal match .223 69gr $~21/20 last i got em). Maybe not for everyone, but I have as much fun with rimfires as I do anything else, and I can afford to shoot a lot more. And it could actually be her gun. Just a thought.
  33. Just get a Ruger Precision, slap a scope on it, and see what happens. Or, get two Ruger Predators and you each have one, probably cheaper! Predator vs RPR testing starts soon, both 6.5CM. I'll let you know. Or just get two Thompson Center Compass by 4/30 with a $75 rebate. Supposed to be under 1 MOA guaranteed. Not bad places to start. https://www.smithandwessonrebates.com/#/home
  34. There is no sympathy here.
  35. No, you can't. My ex loved my Savage 93R17 TR and claimed it was hers. So for a two+ year period, I only got to shoot it if I went alone. My ex was short enough to fit under my chin, and the same setup on my Savage worked for both of us. Same for other exes/friends, my bolt guns never gave em problems. The guns may not have been ideal for them, but they adapted and shot them fine. As for actual question, if it is a fixed, non-adjustable stock, it may be an issue, depending on how similar or dissimilar you two are. If it is a bolt gun, maybe consider a stock that can adjust to both of you - comb and LOP (or even a chassis with buffer tube attachment so you can use AR stocks like PRS)? Use a paint pen to color code your individual preferences? Or get her her own. No one has to share then! 2x rifles, 2x scopes, 2x more mags, 2x more ammo, 1/2 the space in the safe, 2x more cleaning, etc etc etc

  37. I checked the math. Each container is under 3 cubic feet, which these are good for: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CE3VQ4U/ref=od_aui_detailpages00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I need 2 for my lockable trunk. Wife will be happy I get my shooting stuff out of her office, and I'll be happy I have a new dry place to hide future purchases.
  38. It states air and watertight seal, not designed to be submirged. I like the ziplock bags idea for linens and clothes. I have metal, fabric, and paper items that are too delicate to vacuum seal though.
  39. I would rather have the 300 clams to put towards a new ghat. And it did feel good to buy that new gun knowing the old guns where going to a good home.
  40. Id rather have $300 less in taxes, and part the guns out for the $100 and up. And not be involved in some feel good measure that has zero effect on crime. I’m with @PK90
  41. Assault is a behavior, not a device. Some of those yelling loudest for gun control enjoy the constant protection of security armed with...guns. My rifle self-identifies as a family defense device.
  42. Citigroup is not dumb guys. They probably took a look at who their customers actually are, and saw that they have very few (if any) that would be affected by this "change". They will lose nothing, and get a bunch of free publicity from our "outrage". They will then use that free publicity to get hippies and snowflakes to open accounts with their "socially responsible" bank. Headlines, headlines, headlines! That's all they are after. It's all a gimmick. I would bet anything that they have no major gun clients, and small mom and pop LGS couldn't afford their minimum balances and crazy service fees anyway.
  43. LMAO http://sexygunsandbuns.tumblr.com/post/170203469650
  44. Couldn't agree more. Shooting is what improves your skills. Not gadgets. As far as all this customization stuff. (and HE I think you'll agree) You better be able to shoot with competency anything you pick up off the ground and wipe the blood off of.
  45. I have other .357's to shoot - the Python is saved (Un-Fired) for my grandson
