A while back I tried to send out a barrel from the Paramus PO to see if it could be threaded for chokes. When asked the contents I said it was just a shotgun barrel, not the whole gun. The clerk slammed the window down, dove onto the floor and yelled for a supervisor. The ahole supervisor told me it was illegal to ship gun parts and said he was going to call the cops. I left and shipped it elsewhere declaring it to be steel tubing going out for machine work. No problem. Recently, I sent a barrel out in trade for a different barrel and another barrel for choke threading. Again I said it was steel tubing. No problem. The moral of the story when doing anything firearms related here in New Jerky is keep it simple and don't frighten the peasants.

You guys are some ignorant b******s, that's for sure. http://www.midwayusa.com/s?userSearchQuery=colibri

Colibri. Quieter than an air gun. Works well on grackles, not that I would have personal knowledge of such.

OP, is there any possibility that the hammer spring is installed incorrectly?

My last one, at least 15 years ago, took 1 day. That was 4 chiefs ago. The fact that he and a couple of others in the department were customers may have had a bit to do with that.

You best bet is referrals from friends and neighbors. Also check the ads in the free driveway newspapers. Most contractors there are very local and rely on repeats and referrals to survive. When they come for the estimate make sure that they themselves will be on the job and are not just going to sub-contract it out or drop off day laborers with no supervision.

I tensioned the extractor on my 1911 many years ago after many seemingly random FTEs. I made a tool to do it. Search "tune 1911 extractor" on Youtube. Lots of vids there.

He needs to get an attorney familiar with this area of law. Many of us did stupid crap when we were kids, we just didn't get caught. Good luck to him.

Wilson 47s have been 100% for me. So have the inexpensive Mec-Gars. Unless the mag bodies are damaged, you might be able to rejuvenate your existing mags with some new Wolff springs.

I'll just add this about Luciano's.....opinions vary.

Of course he does. I remember on 9/11 when I was flipping through the channels looking for info. Channel 8 showed muzzies in Paterson in the street cheering. That video disappeared like a fart in the wind. Your guess is as good as mine as to why. Disappeared or not, I saw it. It was what it was, muzzies cheering murder. Apparently, the muzzies are part of his base.

Seems similar to the Levang Linear Compensator.

No offense intended. Like Reagan said, "Trust, but verify".

Their demonizing of the NRA is an accurate indicator of just how frightened they are of it. Judging by the level of noise, there are a lot of wet pants in the MSM.

A bit of good news..... Got this response from Parsons which I had contacted through the MVC website... "Pre 1996 vehicles do not receive an OBD test, they receive a TSI or an idle test. Therefore, the Check Engine Light being illuminated is not an automatic failure for these vehicles."

Thank you. Is that the work around I saw at Toyota Nation with a single sensor with a modified harness mounted to a nut welded to the lift bracket? I thought that was particularly ingenious. When this thread completes I will definitely print it out, file it with my manuals, and seek your guidance if it fails inspection. I have some time yet on that.

'93 Camry wagon, V6, 3VZ-FE

Thanks to all. It's the 55 code for a problem in the knock sensor circuit. In theory when the fault trips the timing defaults to 0 deg BTDC. This one doesn't. It's maintaining about 7-8 deg at idle and goes to 10 deg with the jumper on the diagnostic port. Runs perfectly with no apparent loss of power. I put tape on the dash so I don't have to look at the light and I'll worry about it when inspection is due. If it fails I'll either fix it myself if I'm up to it, get it fixed (about $900 to $1K because the OEM sensors are expensive and are under the intake manifold.), or sell it as is. I hate to give it up as I bought it new, it only has 57K on the clock, and otherwise runs perfectly. Again, thanks to all.

Does anyone have a definitive answer whether an OBDI (not OBDII) car can be inspected with the CEL on or is the light on a cause for automatic rejection or a refusal to inspect? The vehicle in question is a '93 Camry V6.

All fine and dandy, but why should my rights be subservient to the whim of some flopstick with a wild hair across his keister? I'm a retired old man now but with ambush and other skills I learned and honed in the field a long time ago. I'll put a final period to the career of any badged up double digit IQ a**hole who tries to pull that crap on me now. I have all the time in the world to do it.

Except sometimes you do. When the NJ AWB first went in, I got pulled over twice within a month for absolutely no reason, each time by an idiot who attempted to coerce a consent to search by screaming at me, threatening me with arrest, and claiming to be calling in for a warrant. I continued to refuse consent until they finally gave up and left. After the second incident I scraped off the NRA sticker and was never bothered again. Apparently, here in New Jerky we have a goodly number of badged up malignant sphincters who believe a pro-RKBA decal constitutes probable cause. Let's hope this recent gutting of the Fourth Amendment doesn't lead to an out of control situation where someone who gets illegally searched goes cop hunting.

BTDT. New boot plus Black Jack where pipe goes through boot. That lasted for years until the roof was redone and all new boots installed.

Best guess is that there is a leak at the roof where the vent pipe penetrates. Rain water is running down along the pipe and wetting the wall resulting in mildew. Repair that leak first. If the drywall is not frangible, let it dry out, wipe it down, prime with an oil or alcohol based stain killing primer then repaint. If it is frangible then replace as needed.

I have a body bag that I bought for cash at a fun show and a van. We all have different ways of dealing with an inconvenient issue.
