Regulators in the San Francisco Bay Area voted Wednesday to eliminate the sale and installation of natural gas-powered furnaces and water heaters over eight years beginning in 2027, ostensibly to limit air pollution.
The vote was the latest step taken by left-wing jurisdictions against natural gas — a convenient and relatively clean-burning source of fuel.
The San Francisco Chronicle reported (original links):

Bay Area regulators voted Wednesday to adopt rules to phase out the sale and installation of natural-gas furnaces and water heaters over the next eight years, one of the most ambitious plans in the country to replace gas appliances with electric alternatives.
The rules, approved by the Bay Area Air Quality Management District, are meant to reduce air pollution from some of the worst home-appliance offenders. The main pollutants targeted are nitrogen oxides, or NOx, which can cause acid rain and smog as well as increase risk for asthma and other respiratory diseases.
People will be able to repair their gas appliances if they break — but the rules take effect when existing gas-powered furnaces or water heaters no longer work and need to be replaced. New construction will also be required to have zero-NOx — effectively, electric — furnaces and water heaters.

The new policy does not affect gas stoves, but follows a 2020 decision by the San Francisco Board of Supervisors to ban the installation of natural gas lines in new buildings. It also comes just weeks after a controversy over a proposal by the Biden administration to consider banning the sale of new gas stoves.
Democrats oppose natural gas, even though its adoption has allowed the U.S. to produce fewer carbon dioxide emissions while growing its economy, because it is still a fossil fuel and is often extracted through fracking.
Elsewhere in Los Angeles, the “Green New Deal” proposed by then-Mayor Eric Garcetti (confirmed Wednesday as U.S. Ambassador to India) seeks to phase out natural gas power plants, despite possible electricity shortages.

I can see it now, "I'm sorry sir but you will have to get your electrical panel upgraded to a 200 amp service to handle the new load for an baseboard heaters in each room and an electric water heater. And by the way, your walls will need to be torn out to allow new wiring to the baseboard heaters and the electric water heater. Oh and by the way, the walls that are torn out will have to be repaired. Here's your estimate for the work...$25,000.00. Of course you understand that you will not have any heat or hot water until the electrical upgrades are completed. When would you like us to start? Tomorrow? Sorry sir we are booked for the next year.

Used, but in good condition. The main difference between this model and the newer MV3 is the mount is fixed and cannot be reversed to the right side of the rifle. Otherwise, it functions and performs the same.

6.5mm HAWK HILL BARRELS 7.5 twist 29" blanks SOLD

I'm finding that cleaning primer pockets and inside necks are two steps I am not fond of. I currently tumble with corncob or walnut media but am thinking of switching to stainless chips to help with cleaning primer pockets and inside of necks. The negative I've read is that the inside of the necks are too clean and cause too much friction with the seated bullet, which is obviously a problem.

Those of you who use stainless media, how do you assure you have consistent neck lube with minimal friction? I use imperial dry lube when using mandrels to expand necks. Will this suffice for seating bullets? I've read others use neolube #2 or a paste.

I was hoping to get some feedback from others that use stainless media before going the trial and error route. Thanks.

Vortex Defender CCW Red Dot Sight
If you are looking for a red dot sight that is compact, rugged and ready to defend then the Vortex Defender CCW Red Dot Sight is perfect for you. The sight is available with a 3 MOA red dot or a 6 MOA red dot reticle. It delivers maximum concealment, reliability, and the first shot quickness you need when facing a threat with nowhere to run. The slim profile means no extra bulk or width for a smoother, no snag draw from under clothes and less chance of printing, so the only one on the street who knows you’re packing is you.

A large, class leading sight window and brilliant, illuminated dot help you lock on target faster and defend more accurately, even in low light. Auto-Shutoff to preserve battery life. Motion activated, so it’s instantly ready when you need it. It fits full-size to micro-compact and is meant for those who prioritize personal protection.

Description
Arm yourself with the red dot specifically built for modern everyday carry. The micro-sized Defender-CCW™ delivers maximum concealment, function without fail, and first-shot quickness you can trust when facing a threat with nowhere to run.

Over the years I’ve often thought what would be MY do everything rifle. A rifle I would grab in most any situation and would Be my first choice if I could only keep one. I decided that for me the ultimate do everything rifle would be a bolt action for reliability, ease of maintenance, weight and accuracy with a short barrel for maneuverability and lighter weight. It would have to be mag fed.

It would have to be short action so I can keep my head on the stock while cycling the bolt. I debated for a long time between 308, 6.5 Creed and 223. These 3 are the most common, so in a SHTF situation (or a Joe Biden is POTUS situation) i might be able to more easily find ammo somewhere. Finally decided 6.5 Creed because it is superior to the other two in most every way. Thinking of building another rifle like this in 223 and my wife and daughters could shoot it.

I settled on a Rem 700 action mostly because of cost, aftermarket parts and all the Remage barrel options. It is blueprinted, has a Holland recoil lug, M16 extractor, PTG bottom metal for AICS mags. Bugholes made me a nice 20” Bartlein 6.5 Creedmoor barrel in a #3B contour which at 20” is 0.830“ diameter. Not too heavy, but just enough meat to provide more consistency than a sporter barrel.

I bought a used Rem LTR stock which is a compact police tactical stock designed for keeping the weight down and balancing well with a short 20” barrel. Even though it has an aluminum bedding block, you can’t always trust them to make 100% contact with receiver and lug surfaces so I lightly glass bedded it with Marine Tex. Put in a TriggerTech Primary set at 2.0#. Installed an adjustable cheek piece.

I painted the stock and barrel myself. Used painters tape on parchment paper to cut out shapes in the GAP Camo style and painted in 3 layers, adding more shapes in between each paint layer.

Topped it with a Trijicon Credo 2.5-15x scope on a 20MOA rail.

Did some initial load development and 10 shot groups under 3/4 MOA were common. Found a couple loads - two different bullets that averaged 0.5-0.6 MOA 10 shot groups.

I plan to get the barrel threaded 5/8-24 soon and add an attachment rail on the forend. If I had it to do over again, I’d probably use a Bighorn or American Rifle Co. action with controlled round feed. If I chose 223, I’d probably go down in barrel contour to a #3. I’d also consider a lightweight Manners stock with an integral adjustable cheek piece. These extras add a lot of cost over what I did though, so in a bang for buck comparison, I highly recommend doing what I did. Used stock, Rem700 action, Bugholes barrel, DIY.

Shot down 'over international waters'. Does anyone believe a single word coming out of this administration any more? Who knows where it was before it was taken out? Now Lindsey Graham et al wants to shoot down russian jets. Anyone else believe a hot war with russia is a good idea, over this most corrupt Ukranian regime?

I have a stuck suppressor (silencerco Specwar) and I’ve tried a vise to get it off. The only thing I have not tried is soaking it was some sort of a really good carbon killer. just basically looking for something maybe to dip the end In for however long it takes but won’t hurt the suppressor or the barrel itself. Thanks!

I am seeing a lot of people complaining about Spuhr design and quality changes lately. Should I consider buying something else like an M-Brace? I have like 5-6 Spuhrs that have been great but they are the 6 screw design.

Any merit to these complainers?

Up for sale is my 16” Surgeon (Bartlein) .308 barrel, it has the #14 M40/M24 Contour.

This barrel was pulled from my Surgeon CSR with a 591 Action.

I have around 60 rounds through this barrel and it has performed flawlessly.

Have a paid for air bnb that we were provided to spend the weekend in New Orleans.

What is decent to do and what are the stuff to see?

Not looking to go down and party and wade around in puke, piss, among other things.

Plan on going to the WWII museum as I was told it was worth going too.

Any recommendations for city tours? Have two adults a 15 year old and a stroller but will have another family member watch baby if we go somewhere not baby friendly.

Gents,

On today’s date, 2067 years ago, the greatest warrior this world has ever known was murdered. He was murdered by traitors who’re jealous of his accomplishments in life.

I’m drinking a few beers to celebrate the life & many accomplishments of Gaius Julius Caesar.

While scientists rack their brains over a permanent pothole solution, people all around the world have been taking local pothole woes into their own hands — from masked vigilantes in Oakland to Domino’s Pizza. For one man in New Zealand though, pothole advocacy comes in the form of phallic art.

Geoff Upson, a 30-year-old handyman and self-professed road safety campaigner in Auckland, is somewhat of a local hero known for spray painting neon green dicks on pothole-ridden roads.

Guy paints Penises over Potholes.

saw hunting movies on Cattle's i was wondering who can give an odd around how many percent Cattle would not survive if they where shot point blank around 10 feet away in the head with an.22 LR?

I wonder if it comes close to what I think!
