  1. In my opinion, "they" don't trust themselves because they know how F'd up they are, and are projecting anxieties about themselves on everyone else. Basically they are saying they are scum bags so everyone else must be too.
  2. Hodgdon H4895 and IMR 4895 (not the same powder, so make sure you follow the specific loading instructions for each) Norma 203-B Vihtavuori N150 Varget powder, also from Hodgdon Hodgdon CFE 223 is another popular choice, and it’s designed to reduce copper fouling, which is great for the health of your barrel. RamShot Tac and Alliant RL-15 and RL-17 also get high marks from both match shooters and hunters.
  3. It's kinda like making folks pay a tax to vote. Dems screamed bloody murder when voter ID was suggested In spite of most states issuing ID for FREE to poor people. Their argument was any cost associated with voting is a poll tax and any inconvenience is racist.
  4. Which is no different than what I just said. If you qual with two guns, you may carry them. If you qual with eight guns, then carry any of them. The question is; are you only allowed to qual with 4 guns, or can you qual with as many guns as you want. Guns can't be listed on the permit if there was no qual. Again, if I understand correctly, an app with 10 guns was rejected. Qualifying with ten guns would take a long time and cost a small fortune. The cops doubted the validity and questioned it, consequently learning the applicant did not actually qual with all the listed guns. All I'm gonna say is this, and leave it at that, as I have no dog in this race anyway. If one "dials it up to 11" don't be surprised when a speaker blows out.
  5. You can carry any gun you own, as long as you qual with it. If my understanding of the situation is correct, the problem was not with the number of guns, but that the shooter didn't actually qual with most of them.
  6. If it wasn't the jackass from Barnegate, it would have been some other jackass from somewhere else. The real jackass is whomever it was at shooters that went along with adding ten gats to the application.
  7. Holsters made from jackalope hides will not mark or wear the finish.
  8. I'm making something just for you @Mrs. Peel Stand by, it's gonna be a minute.
  9. Here are some interesting tidbits taken from various sites, along with some of my own computations. The accuracy is sketchy (some figures vary by vested interest of sources), but should fall in the ballpark. 120VAC produces a max potential of 3,413 BTU per kWh A 1500W rated (120VAC 12.5A) space heater produces 5,120 BTU/h (or 122,880 BTU in a 24hr period) 1 gal. of HHO = 40.6 kWh 1 gal. HHO = 135,500 BTUs @ $0.20/kWh it costs approx $0.30/hr to run a 1500W space heater at full output. The amount of energy in 1g #2 is135,500 BTUs, which is equal to a 1500W space heater operating at full output for 27 hours. Old(er) furnaces typically operate at 54% - 70% efficiency Newer furnaces operate as high as 93% efficiency. Electric space heaters operate at nearly 100% efficiency, as there is no heat exchanger. At current prices, it costs about $8.10 to produce the same amount of BTUs with electricity (@ .20/kWh) as 1 gal HHO at $5.50/g (no, I'm not showing my math, it's probably a bit off anyway.) So, here's what I'm thinking. If #2 gets rationed, at the very least oil can be conserved using space heaters in key rooms. If the electric heater is used 14 hours a day, and runs a 50% duty cycle, it could cost as little as $2.00/day to keep key rooms comfortable at 72deg while the rest of the house is at 65deg (or lower). The older and less efficient the house furnace is, the greater the savings. If your house is old and drafty, put film over windows and insulate doors, exterior outlets and switches. All combined, the amount of cold air coming in is like leaving a window open in the middle of winter.
  10. I wonder what the cost per 1000 BTUs is for electricity now, compared to heating oil. Electric is traditionally the most expensive way to heat, but I wonder what the break point is for it being cheaper than oil.
  11. You don't need a FID for guns that you already own. As long as they are NJ legal, you can bring 'em home. If you have ARs, you will probably have to pin stocks and get a muzzle device that is not a flash hider, also pick up some ten round mags. You do not have to register gun in NJ, at least not yet. The only thing you can't do is drive around willy nilly with a long gun in the trunk. Until you get your FPID, you can only legally transport long guns to and from a range or other authorized location like a gunsmith.
  12. All that matters is he's on the straight and narrow now. As long as we can keep @Mrs. Peel away from him, he should be okay. @B Gem be strong. There is a succubus among us that goes by the name of Mrs Peel (pronouns: she/her/hamster). She will do everything in her power, to persuade you to join the Taylor Hamster cult. This insidious cabal will serve you up any old processed meat, wanting you to believe it is the genuine article. Don't be fooled, there is only one Taylor Ham.... I mean Pork Roll, Taylor Pork Roll. Dammit, she must be messing with that Voodoo doll again. Just be strong. I hope you brought a shotgun or two with you. We have shotgun shoots (clay target) at the Clinton and Stafford Forge WMAs every so often. It's a good opportunity to meet forum members.
  13. It won't get you banned, but you will be mocked relentlessly.
  14. It happens almost every Sunday, it has something to do with server maintenance.
