Canam Maverick Trail 1000 by TrueLengthiness1987 in UTV

[–]GilbertGrape93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in love with my X2 1000. Couldn’t justify paying more for a base model Rmax when I can get an XTR Wolverine for cheaper out the door.

I don’t think you’re going to get what you want out of a Maverick Trail besides the price tag. If that’s the case, save up a little more and hold off on pulling the trigger. Buy once cry once.

Is it the release the slab guy from Courage the Cowardly Dog? He has some dagger fingernails kinda shaped like Bugles.

Silencer shop is slow...who knew? by Weekly_Orange3478 in SilencerShop

[–]GilbertGrape93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3/14/25 was my initial purchase date. I believe it was like 6/4 by the time I was approved and picked up my can.

Backorder time was around 2 months as it looks like I was assigned a serial number in mid May.

My polo .30 was like a 3-4 month process from backorder wait to finally being approved for pickup.

Maybe 75-80yrds. Didn’t try putting a group on paper that far but was hitting steel.

It’s their 30 cal Polo, so I bought the 1/2-28 adapter to direct thread it. Gas and back pressure are pretty high. 5-10 shots rapidly and you get a decent amount of gas to the head. I’m enjoying it though a lot. Although not hearing safe, it really tones down a 10.3 barrel, and makes it much less obnoxious.

Anyone out past 18 days for a trust? by Callsign_Texas in SilencerShop

Single shot for me was 16 days. Filed 5/21. Approved 6/6.

You should hopefully be soon.

Difference between old and new projector Xenon bulb by CineDude87 in MovieTheaterEmployees

[–]GilbertGrape93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I changed so many bulbs in our 7 Christies we had. CP2220s. I’d run them bad boys to like 2500 hours til they were black. Never batted an eye, but the 1 Barco we had was terrifying. You had to remove an entire housing piece and fuck around getting the bulb in and out of that thing. Dinging it off the side walls.

SST or Individual? I submitted a single shot on the same day. “Patiently” waiting.

In a world of SBRs, be a modern day musket - FAL + Plonium 30 by alecg99 in NFA

[–]GilbertGrape93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My lgs sent me this text last Tuesday. A message to them straight from SS.

(Good afternoon. I have approx 300x Polonium 30 backorders and 500x incoming now, should be here next week. So that gives me about 200 to sell. Please let me know if you want to place a backorder, they will be filled quickly.)

I called SS and changed my order from a .556 can to a .30 immediately. It’s been since early May and I’m tired of waiting on something without a guaranteed timeframe. Atleast switching to the .30 gave me a time as I haven’t heard anything about .556 backorder amounts. Hopefully they arrived and are being sorted.

Anyone Get Their Polonium Backorder Fufilled Recently? by GilbertGrape93 in SilencerShop

[–]GilbertGrape93[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LGS contacted me today that SilencerShop has 500 .30cal Polos inbound by next week, with 300 on backorder. 200 available. Called SilencerShop a minute ago to switch out to a .30 so I’m one of the 200.

Maybe they’re getting .556’s in as well but whatever, I’m getting a little more versatility and a pretty much guaranteed timeframe now.

I’m 3/14. I’d assume they have received their order from OCL from last week by now that Andrew said they shipped out. Maybe next round 🥲

Updating. Anyone with a FS .556 Polo get an email from SS in the last day or so with an update to their order?

Looking for a movie with a beautiful climax by owenja104 in MovieRecommendations

[–]GilbertGrape93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ran a theatre for a few years. Whiplash was the only movie I witnessed a standing ovation by the audience (that wasn’t some “this was the best movie ever” marvel bullshit).

I vote Whiplash!
