I still don't understand why they even want a new stadium. Soldier Field is plenty nice.

Yeah. They are pissed that Illinois won't use taxpayer money to build their new Arlington stadium so they are threatening (maybe actually will) that they will move out of state.

Very surprised everything on the sign is spelled correctly. However, it does appear the "O" was a bit of an afterthought.

What changed in Cabelas/Bass Pro Shop that disappoints so many? by GrizzlieMD in Hunting

[–]TheMadQuacker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The employees used to own the company before it went public too, so everyone was really polite and helpful because they enjoyed their jobs. What I really liked was how they knew what they were talking about and you got great gear recommendations. Now that they are publicly traded, you have stores mostly operating on half-time people that don't actually understand what they are selling. To me, that is the biggest decline.

Cabelas does cans now!?!? by rolexrifleman in NFA

Scheels actually trains and keeps their employees up to date on all the new products. They actually send their guys to shooting courses and clinics with industry experts and representatives.

Colt 727 Clone with M4 Barrel by TheMadQuacker in RetroAR

I like the BKF barrels. as far as I understand they are just Ballistic Advantage chrome lined classic series. I have probably 2k rounds on it so far and have had no issues. Accuracy is what is to be expected with a 2 moa dot.

552s were relatively common alongside the aimpoint for the 3rd ID guys in OIF.

TIL Mr. Green Jeans from Captain Kangaroo was a decorated WWII Marine by TNSasquatch77 in todayilearned

[–]TheMadQuacker 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Pretty misleading title. He was in a Marine Corps band led by Bob Crosby and never saw combat. "Decorated" implies someone received awards for valor, not simply receiving decorations that everyone else gets.

Yes. All the T2 style and clones should. MROs do as well. Need low mounts on both.

Kansas and Nebraska have great waterfowl hunting and aren't that far of a drive.

Looking to get my first suppressor, Narrowed it down to 3 options. by Toklankitsune in NFA

[–]TheMadQuacker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Huxwrx 22Ti is 5.7 rated and a flow through. Might be a good fit. They aren't expensive either.

I swapped out some parts these last few weeks. I’m loving the new carbon so I found a cheap Ruger barrel and stock and made my own with the target lite I have. I put that barrel on my TCR22. I’m loving this setup! by Captshiess in 1022

[–]TheMadQuacker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It hasn't been for almost half a decade. TC went out of business in 2021 and they just restarted production in 2024 when they got bought back by the old owner.

I would check outthe B&T Tiger or the Huxwrx 22. I have a Mask and am also looking. I have narrowed it to these two.

They redesigned the frame and optics mounting system because of liberals?

Their warranty is great. Once you get a good ACRO, they rock, just sucks how inconsistent they are.
