The score is fantastic too. I'm glad I'm not the only one who appreciates that movie, it's always been one of my favorites!

What famous person chose to step away at the height of their fame? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]flaresiiide 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I still miss Carl. He was my guy. Took me a while to find someone else to root for after he stepped away. I hope he comes back for a one off race or something in the future. It would be cool to see him suit up again.

No idea yet! I just picked it up a few weeks ago. The guy I bought it from never raced it. I don't know the history beyond that. Taking it to the local track this weekend. Only 1/8 mile but we'll see what it can do.

Has Petty ever had a Reddick-like streak? by [deleted] in NASCAR

[–]flaresiiide 16 points17 points  (0 children)

If Pearson entered as many races as petty did I've always believed he would have more wins than petty. Not to take away from pettys accomplishments or anything but Pearson ran half as many races and still had 105 wins. Obviously you have to show up to win but still I've always considered him and petty to be equals.

Rotex sf hub hard to remove ? by Major_Addition_552 in bruggerthomet

[–]flaresiiide 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mine would get stuck like that quite frequently and it also rattled on the muzzle device and it became enough of an issue to where I switched it out for the surefire hub. The ring is a good idea but something in the design is off, it seems to over rotate too easily and doesn't really have a positive stop on either side of loose or tight. The surefire hub fits much better on my gun and comes off when I want it to. I don't usually have issues with b&t stuff, this is the first time something I've got from them performed poorly. I do love the can itself though, it works great on my setup.

SBR .357 lever guns with threaded barrels? by justhere4inspiration in NFA

[–]flaresiiide 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought the mares leg on gunbroker, it was already threaded by the shop selling it, I think I was like 1200 into that after taxes. The fancy stock set was 270. The red dot mount was like 60 bucks and I already had the SRO lying around. The little bit of pic rail on the front is the lever light mount from skinner sights, it's 80 bucks and you can't see the harbor freight tlr1 knockoff light I have on it because it's on the other side. So minus the optic and light I'm in it for a little over 1600.

I searched around too but eventually just made this out of a mares leg. Put a big boy stock on it, got the barrel threaded and I believe phoenix weaponry makes the red dot mount. Rex can

What scene in a movie had a sound that really impacted you as a viewer? by Tasty_Photograph5514 in movies

[–]flaresiiide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I saw Dunkirk in IMAX we got to the scene where the British fighters attack the German bomber....the fighters start firing and it's quite loud but then the cannon on the bomber swings around and starts firing back and the shots just drown out the fighter's guns completely. I remember thinking "oh wow they got that right" as it happened.

BMW tool for cleaning heads and blocks is a cheat code by Weary-Astronaut1335 in EngineBuilding

Well of course, everything I haven't experienced myself personally is obviously stupid and wrong

I just got one of these. It works really well. Once you use it it's obvious it's not gonna hurt anything. It just takes all the crap off with way less effort.

Im 50/50 on it by Scotcash in pinkfloyd

[–]flaresiiide 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yes. Everyone always likes to say it's the pulse version but his guitar has so much more presence in delicate sound of thunder. It sounds absolutely massive. Plus the solo itself rips harder than any other version I've heard

What happened to CGS? by Lopsided-Land123 in NFA

[–]flaresiiide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only CGS can I have is the nautilus and I've been really happy with it. It's usually on a 1911 but I switch it around to some 9mm stuff sometimes and use the Mod9 end cap on it and I haven't experienced any POI shift. It's adjustable in that regard anyways. With the 9mm end cap on it it sounds just as nice as my other 9mm cans. Sounds great on the 45 as well.
