My son and I started watching all of the Marvel Movies in Chronological order (Order in which the would have occurred in the Marvel Universe, not by release dates). We’re on “Thor” tonight. It has been a fun diversion from the craziness of the last 2 weeks.

I vacuumed the cat the other day, but that was at 1am, after 15 beers...

If the old one is quarter turn, yes, just replace the whole thing. I've had really good luck with Prier multi-turn anti-freeze hose faucets. Just cut the old one out and measure before you go to the store. They come in 8, 10, 12, and 14" lengths.

My youngest is finishing her college semester from home, and I learned that somehow she's never seen Animal House, Airplane! or Blues Brothers. So I'm filling gaps in her formal education by introducing her to the classics. We're up to Airplane!, scheduled for tonight, but I can't find my copy of Blues Brothers, and it's not on Netflix. Update: She liked Airplane!, but I learned she's never seen Monty Python and the Holy Grail. So that one is queued up for the weekend.

I actually recently completed my first lower, and besides and armorers wrench (which you can get cheap) and a 15 minute YouTube video..I didn't need anything "special". It's extremely intimidating when you haven't done it before. After completing my first one I could confidently do it again without the video. There's a couple tricky parts and a detent and spring may fly across the room, but besides that it's pretty straight forward. Don't let it scare ya. Also to add, always have an easily lost or broken parts kit or two around. Ya know in case....they're like $6 each...

So beer's not just for breakfast anymore.

I'm still working, but nonetheless, I planned on potentially not working so we are extending our balcony by 30 inches. Pulled down the railing which we custom built over about 2 weeks. It took 2 hours to remove, lol. Removed two rows of flooring started hanging lumber. I've got a bunch more to do yet.

Common sense, amazing how people need the government to tell them what to do. Almost like we aren't adults and need to be treated like 8 year olds.

I'm not against opening indoor ranges, but I'm not going to go to one if it's crowded. Regardless of Corona or not.

You can HEPA filter all you want. COVID-19 is droplet transmission spread. Unless you social distance humans, I don’t see how indoor ranges that get packed on weekends are going to open.

When one gets older and wiser they plan for contingencies.

Needed more cowbell.

I rarely envy anyone, but I do envy the people who live in free states and have enough land to have their own backyard ranges. Must be nice.

Murphy literally skirts the question. Ive never heard this guy speak before. This is literally the first time Ive ever seen him. He looks completely lost. Deer in the headlights. Unable to answer or justify a simple question/position. He immediately turns to Grewal to speak for him... And what does Grewal do? He blatantly lies: "every other Executive order... NONE of those". These are just the ones that I know of, I would imagine that there are more, especially in the Red states. Governors from Illinois and Connecticut have acknowledged that the Second Amendment is not only "essential", its the law of the land which people like him have sworn to uphold... https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2020/03/21/illinois-governor-lists-gun-stores-as-essential-exempts-them-from-forced-shutdown/ https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2020/03/23/connecticut-governor-lists-gun-stores-as-essential-exempts-from-shut-down/ Wolf also had to tuck tail: https://www.bizjournals.com/philadelphia/news/2020/03/25/coronavirus-news-wolf-allows-gun-shops-to-reopen.html Grewal's justification or "defense" is literally "Tommy gets to do it!". At which point the parent would reply, "just because Tommy is doing it, doesnt make it right (legal, lawful or moral)". Poor Tommy isnt even doing it...

From Tanner's FB page.... We will remain closed for the rest of the week to protect the safety of our sales staff. Our goal is to try and reopen Monday April 6th. We are going to put a lot of safety precautions in place to try and keep everyone as safe as we can. Last week we booked appointments for this week and then we decided to stay closed. We are pushing all those appointments back to next week with the same day and time. If you have an appointment booked and will not be able to make it please email us at [email protected] so we can remove your name from the appointment list. We are going to see how the appointments go on Monday and Tuesday before we start booking them for the following week. We will have a new online appointment calendar so once we post the link you will be able to book your own reservation online which will make booking an appointment very easy. We will have two calendars. One for firearm sales and one for ammo/accessory sales. We are very stocked up on guns and ammo at this time and we are receiving shipments in every day so when we reopen, we will have a great selection. We will have a great selection of 9mm, 40, 45, 223 and 5.56 We will have target and defensive in all calibers. We will be making an ammo post on Friday to let everyone know what we will have in stock. There will be some limits depending on the caliber. You will be able to purchase at least 100 rounds of 9mm and 200 rounds of 223/5.56 Transfers: Please be patient !!! We are still receiving in tons of transfers every day and it is going to take some time to get everyone scheduled appointments. WE WILL NOT BE SHIPPING ANY TRANSFERS THAT CAME IN TO ANOTHER DEALER. Again, please be patient. We are trying the best we can. Raymond

Those anti freeze faucets with the long-ass stem have always been problematic. If the stem is even slightly off center you need a nice supple gasket to shut off the wAter. When the gasket starts stiffening up it won’t seal any more ive tried disassembling one before to replace the gasket and could never find a replacement (I think mine was tapered). Ended up cutting the whole thing off and replacing it

All he needs is some 'tussin. RE:

Thank you, I was gonna say.. If people are able to inhale the virus, then that means they have been inhaling all the airborne lead those systems are designed to collect. Which is why these suits need to keep pushing forward.

Yes, Rays is a car dealership overflow lot now — bought my 1st handgun there, March 20, 1990 — the day after my 21st birthday Yes, my pistol permit took 24 hours to process — dropped off permit application before work the day I turned 21 — went to work — went to titty bar after work — it was a Friday — got call from Cheif of police in morning “permit is ready, come get it” I picked up the pemit and went directly to Rays — bought a Colt combat elite — $700 — still have it today

A single stage press isn't that hard to use to make a quantity of pistol ammo — you work in batches Size 200 cases prime 200 cases expand 200 cases seat 200 bullets crimp 200 cases It doesn’t take long, you get a rythm going on the press — I would recommend the little dandy pistol powder measure — powder charging on the included tool will be slow with the included measure Yes a progressive is faster, more expensive, and more involved — you don’t need to start with a progressive Just realize that you will outgrow this kit quick if you do actually become a reloader — even if you stay single stage you will probably upgrade every piece of this kit

Figured this would be a good place to mention this. Cherry Ridge Requires an in person safety orientation the first Sunday each month to sign up for Range membership. They are running an online orientation session on APRIL 5th, if you wanted to join but never found the time, this your opportunity! https://www.anjrpc.org/page/onlinerangeorientation

If you are sucking fumes, the exhaust is designed wrong. It is supposed to be blown from behind you downrange where it is filtered and exhausted. How is a place that is filtering and venting air worse than say going to the super market where there is ZERO airflow? I often go to my range and am the only one in there. Not touching face (unless you like the taste of lead). Hand washing at end of session yep. Sounds like the safest place on earth,

Oil prices dropped under a half per barrel, while pump gas dropped to remain steady around $2.15 or thereabouts. Amazing.

The kit you linked will get you started and soon frustrated of you want to reload any quantity. Consider stepping up to the classic turret press. It automatically rotates the turret with each lever throw so the 4 different dies get used in sequence - 4 swings and you have a complete round rather than having to do each stage in batches.. The turret is also quick swapping so you can switch calibers much easier. Also, once you set the dies to the right height in in the turret you don't have to set them again. With the single stage press you will be changing dies often. It is not a progressive as you are still only making 1 round at a time, but it's a lot faster than a single stage. I can make about 200 pistol rounds per hour with mine once it's set up.

ranges will be open soon enough if they keep pressing but I'm against opening Indoor ranges. Most if not all have special high pressure HVAC systems for the range to remove lead fumes. Some of the indoor ranges I've gone to the airflow has been strong enough where you're still inhaling the blowback, if there are shooters there unknowingly carrying the virus the risk of pollenating others is pretty high. I'm not opposed to outdoor clubs being open, after all they're not public businesses.

I have property in South Berwick, Maine. I'm up there 2 weeks a month with my work schedule. If you guys are up there when I am I'd be happy to meet up, we can shoot at the club I belong to or honestly anywhere with open land. For the time being I'm staying in NJ until this blows over because there is even less open in Maine/NH than there is down here.

Or when one learns the lessons from the past.

Thank you for beating me to the punch with this. As someone who is immuno-compromised himself, I know all too well the risks of secondary bacterial infection. People don't realize what this virus actually does. It causes your immune system to literally destroy your lungs as it attacks the virus where it resides (so far as it has been explained to me). When that happen it exposes you to infection from a whole host of other bacteria that are just naturally present around us that our nasal passages and lungs would otherwise filter out to various means or your immune system could deal with on a normal basis. Without an effective anti-viral agent, the best you can do is treat the symptoms and prevent secondary infection while your body deals with the virus. For some its worse than others, especially people who are older or already prone to illness. But people tend to attribute this virus to only affecting the elderly, which is a really bad philosophy to have. How many Americans are obese and can't get up a flight of steps without breathing heavy, how many are smokers or vapers? How many with high blood pressure or underlying heart disease? Those people may not realize it but they are high risk as well. Ultimately the real problem I think is people being stupid. Were going on what now? 2 weeks of this "stay at home" order? People are already tired of it. I see roads down here in SJ that are packed with traffic. My buddy lives down near the shore and said he see's a ton of traffic with people trying to go to beaches or elsewhere. I get it, its inconvenient, annoying and for some problematic. But if you care about anyone other then yourself, or even if you only care about yourself, heed the warnings, stay home as much as possible. Don't wind up being a statistic. If people don't make the problem worse, I don't think the fear monger scenario I spoke of will even come close to playing out. But in case people don't want to take it seriously, just have a look at some of the latest CDC statistics. https://covid19.healthdata.org/projections I was kind of surprised to see Trump visibly shaken at the press conference this afternoon over the reality of the situation. He mentioned how people kept calling it the flu, or just like the flu, and how people think its just over reaction, and I was surprised to hear him openly admit, this isn't the flu or anything like it, and emphasize the seriousness of it.

That might be it. Here's a video on how most of them come apart. Next time you solder a spigot, take the guts out so no heat near the rubber/plastic stuff.

I like her. she looks like she's loving every second of this. the other 2 lady drummers look like robots. highway to hell.

he shocked the shit outta me. this is the fist video of his I found...... this is the shit though. keep this going. some dam good/fun music, and considering the $%^ going on around us......it's fun.

Jeff White, Condor Bushlore, ESEE 4HM.

I just sanitized your snot locker, not one bit of Covid-19 in there now. You're welcome.You owe me your life. #whydoesitburnwhenipee

If you are nearby and can supply beer, I'll come pee on your lawn as much as you want. My calendar is pretty clear these days.

Z-Pak is being used to prevent secondary infections of the lungs by bacteria. It has very little to do with the virus itself, same with Doxycycline. Neither of these drugs are being used to treat his condition, and thus will have little impact on him getting better. However, these drugs allow his immune system to focus on eliminating a single threat(virus) instead of multiple.. Many respiratory viral infections becomes complicated over time with bacterial infections as the tissue becomes compromised.

Delaware? There are more people in Hudson County than in Delaware. Maybe shotgun Joe has them goin nuts.

Compare that to a person who never drove a car yet bought one to escape an emergency! The car, like the gun, are disasters waiting to happen if put into use with no experience in an adrenaline driven panic!

If that's what the Marines do I'd hate to hear what the Coast Guard does......

Liberty vs. Tyranny... Thanks NJ 2AS and President Trump! Is NICs going to be up?

Walking into Tanners is reminiscent of shopping at the old Leslie Edelman's at the Airport Circle in Pennsauken. Glass showcases filled with new and used handguns, and the walls behind the showcases filled with new and used rifles and shotguns. Ahhh, for the old days.

Tanners in Jamison, Pennsylvania is very frendly towards out of state long gun transfers and purchases. As long as you have you purchaser card you are good to go!

What?!?! PM me your address! I’m sending you a new trigger guard and a new pistol grip. You dropped a $200 trigger in your carbine before changing the most important interface you have to the rifle - that being the one between between the shooting hand and the firing grip. My wrist and hand ache, and the first knuckle on the middle finger of my shooting hand itches just looking at this. Craziness!!!

Crossed arms, totally defensive measure. He wants to close the discussion. Stutters and passes the question to the AG because he doesn't know what to say. AG fumbles a bit in how response.

I've decided. If I get tax money back from the feds through this stimulus package; 50% of it is going to 2A orgs. NJ2AS and CNJFO will be the top two.
