1LtCAP

i think he was referencing christie going nuts. a single snowflake seemed to warrant a statewide emergeny, and the brine flowed freely

i think it was. wasn't "jacked" based mostly there?

sooo....were any of the guns this guy sold used in any crimes? how was he acquiring them? how did the atf find this stuff out? overall, i'd think they've got much more important things to do than to bother this guy....unless of course he was regularly killing people and burying them on his famr.......

as soon as philthy police get control of it, the animals will be here.

i read an article the other day in one of the liberal online rags that they were saying they felt domestic violent criminals were looking into these things. soon as i read that, i figured it was a cover for outside sources to fook with us.

i'll be out after work doing the block i live on.

how long does the catalyst last, and what type of maintenance does it need? how often? mine's one of the secondary air types...but as i mentioned, i don't get more than 6'ish hours average.....

wonder if that one's gonna get struck down...as it should.

i guess it'd be a good way to see how the excursion handles it, lolol

it would seem to me that this is something that should be being fought by the nra and all of the other rights groups. i'd imagine if they all worked together with a good lawyer(which they should collectively have the money for) that they could stomp this little issue out. hell.....i'd imagine that if they all worked together the entire house of cards that is our states illegal laws and statutes would fall.......but who am i to ask these things? i'm just some schmuck with no money......

i've been running a napoleon stove insert for about 6 years now. i had expected more burn time out of it. it was rated for up to 9 hours, but i've never gotten more than about 6 or 6.5. it does however keep my house(right around 1k square feet) at a comfy 80f when it's in the teens outside. it's also cut my heating oil consumption more than in half. that all said, i've been looking for something that'll give me same heat output, but longe burns. blazeking seems to be winning my favor, and i'll be looking into them this spring when prices hopefully drop. for wood, i mostly burn oak and poplar. someone had given me a few pieces of cherry wood. i generally gather my wood from the curb when people have had trees taken down, then cut and split it myself. it's work....but it's also exercise, and the benefits are more than worth the extra effort to do this.

for my doggo, i buy her food at bills wonderland in magnolia. so far, i haven't seen any signs of shortages at their place.

how is it that nj is still allowed to get away with this?

soooooo....have you been carrying yours? i get it if you prefer not to answer on the forum.....

who the heck ya gonna shoot with them, lololol

i guess that if the scotus strikes down ny's bs, and it does indeed strik nj's "laws" down, i would imagine we can expect this kind of tomfoolery?

welllll if leo's are refusing this technology, then that says all we need to know about it. if it's not good enough for them, then it's not good enough for the rest of us. if it's good enough for the rest of us, then it's good enough for them. it really is that simple

got the v8?

and when they nullify the gun control acts of 1934 and 1968?

yea. the waterpump's behind the timing cover. there's a passage that's supposed to route the coolant outside the engine when the pump leaks(and it will), but that hardly ever works. the same dept that owns this tahoe that i'm working on had to have a waterpump done on an explorer. thankfully it was still in warranty. the engine has to come out to do that pump.

The 1930s crime spree of the Prohibition era, which still summons images of outlaws outfitted with machine guns, prompted President Franklin Roosevelt to make gun control a feature of the New Deal. The NRA assisted Roosevelt in drafting the 1934 National Firearms Act and the 1938 Gun Control Act, the first federal gun control laws. These laws placed heavy taxes and regulation requirements on firearms that were associated with crime, such as machine guns, sawed-off shotguns and silencers. Gun sellers and owners were required to register with the federal government and felons were banned from owning weapons. Not only was the legislation unanimously upheld by the Supreme Court in 1939, but Karl T. Frederick, the president of the NRA, testified before Congress stating, “I have never believed in the general practice of carrying weapons. I do not believe in the general promiscuous toting of guns. I think it should be sharply restricted and only under licenses." On Nov. 22, 1963, President John F. Kennedy was assassinated by Lee Harvey Oswald. He shot the president with an Italian military surplus rifle purchased from a NRA mail-order advertisement. NRA Executive Vice-President Franklin Orth agreed at a congressional hearing that mail-order sales should be banned stating, “We do think that any sane American, who calls himself an American, can object to placing into this bill the instrument which killed the president of the United States.” The NRA also supported California’s Mulford Act of 1967, which had banned carrying loaded weapons in public in response to the Black Panther Party’s impromptu march on the State Capitol to protest gun control legislation on May 2, 1967. The summer riots of 1967 and assassinations of Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert F. Kennedy in 1968 prompted Congress to reenact a version of the FDR-era gun control laws as the Gun Control Act of 1968. The act updated the law to include minimum age and serial number requirements, and extended the gun ban to include the mentally ill and drug addicts. In addition, it restricted the shipping of guns across state lines to collectors and federally licensed dealers and certain types of bullets could only be purchased with a show of ID. The NRA, however, blocked the most stringent part of the legislation, which mandated a national registry of all guns and a license for all gun carriers. In an interview in American Rifleman, Franklin Orth stated that despite portions of the law appearing “unduly restrictive, the measure as a whole appears to be one that the sportsmen of America can live with.”

they're testing the waters of trying to link his death to covid......

this is why i have been thanking my grandmom every night. when i saw empty shelves at the beginning of the panic, it made me think of her and how she'd always had shelves and shelves of food well ahead of time. i am channeling my grandmom since last year.

soooo....update on the 2016 tahoe. the lifter didn't fail internally as is normal on these afm setups. the tab on the PLASTIC cassette that prevents the lifter from rotating in its bore broke. thus, the lifter rotated in the bore. the edge of the roller gouged the cam lobe, essentially wiping it out. it flung metal around apparently, and also wiped out the next cam lobe back. so it needs a cam. no big deal, right? pull radiator, condenser, water pump etc and plenty of room to pull cam with engine in vehicle. except....the oil pump is in front of the timing chain but behind the timing cover. so.....to take the timing chain off you need to take the oil pump off. to take the oil pump off you need to drop the oil pan. to drop the oil pan, you need to either drop everything underneath the engine or pull the engine. so this essentially escalated into an engine job. BUT WAIT!!!! THERE'S MORE!!!!!!! these engines are on national back order with no known timeline for availability. why you ask? because they're fooking junk. between the plethora of possible afm failures, and the rear main seal leaks......they're junk. now it's gonna end up costing this dept around 10k.
