This semi-old house
Gray wire is washer, black wire is tankless gas water heater. Additional loads would be gas dryer. I usually do just one load of laundry at a time, so would not use dryer and washer simultaneously.

Magpul Glock 19 Mags Dissasembly Problem
Look on YouTube, there’s some disassembly tip videos. Some people use c-clamps to squeeze the mag body to make it easier to pry off the baseplate. You can also get a purpose built tool for disassembly. I have something similar to the one below, makes it much easier but I still feel like I’m going to break the mags every time I pry the baseplate off. https://www.tacticallink.com/Glock-Magazine-Disassembly-Tool-For-All-Glock-Magazines.html

Equifax Data Breach Settlement
Yup, the CNET article doesn’t tell the accurate whole story (shocker). The settlement site allows you to file a $125 claim without any supporting docs if you were part of the breach. If you want to claim more than $125 in damages, *THEN* you have to provide more info/docs.

This semi-old house
Just had plumbing work done to convert electric water heater and dryer over to gas tankless heater and gas dryer. Now I’m starved for 110 outlets in the laundry room. Can I convert this single gang GFCI outlet into a double gang to get 4 outlets? Temporary measure until I can get another circuit run.

Happy to take $125 from those effers.- FFL not returning calls or my magazine
Very surprised that Tier 1 is dropping the ball on anything, they were my preferred FFL when I lived in the area.- JCP&L Outage Map
Out near Asbury Park it was a crazy sudden storm. I was a mile away from home at the store loading up my car when I saw weird clouds swirling - not dark, but low, moving fast and shooting out "tendrils" all over. Got home about 5 minutes later, was unloading the car and it got a bit gray and started to sprinkle. I just finished closing my car door and *WHAM*, wind went from 0 to probably a 60-70 mph sustained gust instantly. No warning, just suddenly a blast of sustained wind - I got worried for a few seconds that it was a tornado. I've got an aluminum flagpole in my front yard, the flag was straight out and the flagpole was flexing. Branches and limbs started coming down all around the neighborhood and I saw a friggin umbrella flying a couple hundred feet overhead. After about a minute the wind died down and it was just rain.- Canik TP9SFX, is such a nice gun!
Recall (actually, "Voluntary Upgrade") is from Sep. 2017. Pistols manufactured after that point have the upgrade parts.. @david8613 , check to see if your serial # is affected: https://www.centuryarms.com/canik-upgrade/ From my read it takes repeated drops to damage the internals to the point where it might discharge on a subsequent drop.- Daily humor thread

- NJSP building non-nfa opinion.
Believe it or not, Det. Sgt. Bloom is on our side. He attended the S.A.F.E. Conference in NJ a couple of years ago and answered questions, including clarifying that applying for a CCW and being denied was not detrimental to future FID or Pistol Permit applications as long as it was disclosed. While in general I’d agree that calling NJSP for “permission” has been a mistake in the past, I don’t believe that’s the case with Bloom. I honestly think he’s an advocate for gun owners in NJ, something sorely needed in the NJSP.- 6/4/2019 - NJGF Meetup @ Garden State Shooting Center

From Reddit - somebody called NJSP Det. Bloom directly:- Shooting without FID Card
Jay Jay’s comment reads to me like someone from a different country who learned everything they know about NJ gun laws and gun culture from 5 minutes of googling and is “grooming” their user account on NJGF so they can unleash spam at some point. It’s been the case with the last 2 years-old-thread resurrections.- Need advise from electricians

Well since Marty and Malsua are already out of the water closet, I’m coming out too - I’ve got a bidet as well - and I bought it for myself. I went hardcore/unheated, because ... MAN CARD.

One other tip - when traveling with your firearm by car, keep it out of sight from the vehicle’s exterior. If you do happen to get stopped by police, and they see a gun case inside your car they can order a search based on NJ’s legal structure around firearms (All firearms are illegal, except when possessed within exemptions).- NJ firearms question
Let me try to provide more useful information than “avoid the shithole”. To legally possess a firearm in NJ your firearm must not be banned by name or features, and you must be in an exempted location/situation where possession is not illegal. Your bolt action is not banned by name or feature, so you’re good on that score. You’re allowed to travel between residences with a firearm (unloaded, in the trunk or otherwise in a “securely fastened container”), so you should be good on travel from the airport to the place you’re staying for 3 days. While within NJ, you can only transport between residences, to a range/match, or to a firearms dealer/gunsmith, and only traveling directly to/from those locations with no “unreasonable deviations”. Don’t keep your rifle with you while going out to eat, visiting friends, etc. within NJ. Leave it where you’re staying. If children <18 are present where you’re staying, then the firearm must be locked/inaccessible to them. More simply - while in NJ, transport directly from airport to residence and nowhere else. Keep it unloaded and in locked case. Do not transport your firearm again unless you’re going to a range/match, dealer/gunsmith, or leaving the state. If your ammunition is not hollow point then there are no restrictions on transporting the ammo, other than it not being loaded in the rifle.- What do you make of this optic?
I've had a couple of those. They are overpriced at $40, you should be paying more in the $18-$25 range. Might be serviceable on an airsoft/paintball or .22. On a 12 gauge? Ha, I'd be surprised if the glass stayed in the frame past the 2nd shot.- 6/4/2019 - NJGF Meetup @ Garden State Shooting Center

The goldenrod “dehumidifier” is just a low wattage electric heater element. It works by keeping the temp inside the safe slightly higher than ambient, preventing condensation. It’s going to be a constant power draw, there won’t be a surge. - Equifax Data Breach Settlement
