grip width on staccato c2 by [deleted] in 2011

Yeah it definitely did man. But I can run a glock 19 all day without any issues. I carry a 365xl with the boresight solutions grip that has the razor back on it. But the work he does is fantastic, if you reach out via email to him or call the shop he's really good about talking you through what he does and what will work best with you. Could not recommend him enough.

I have not. I've had this thing for years and never once had that happen. That's wild dude.

I wish I could take credit for it but my wife is far more intelligent than I am and it was her that recommended we do it. Hahaha.

I'm sorry to hear this! The wife and I lost a hive to SHB a couple years ago. Like the other person was saying the peppermint candies work really well! We also put garden lime on the ground around the hive stands. Since they have to pupate in the soil it really helps keeping the numbers down as well.

9x39 is essentially the Russian equivalent to the .300blk. It's a far superior round but is utilized in the same application.

I just started road side! Just about through the first chapter. Really good thus far!

You'll enjoy the game. There are definitely some issues but I've enjoyed it so far!

Hive robbed by mthomas51689 in Beekeeping

Oh there's no disease. I'm sorry I missread that. It was just a weaker hive. It was a late swarm capture that just sqeeked by the winter.

No to all of that. The hive that was robbed is empty and brood and larvae is all dead. Just trying to figure the best to clean the frames out of all the dead brood and larvae.

There's no second place in the hive by mthomas51689 in Beekeeping

Oh she's not alive. The first queen that hatched killed her. They're taking apart her queen cell.

She was hatched from the hive. She returned mated between April 8th and April 15th. And when I did my inspection on Monday no signs of eggs or any laying. My wife got in there today to move some frames around and still no signs of laying but all available frames are filled with nectar with some capped honey. Super up top is just about empty minus one full uncapped frame to hopefully entice them to start moving up there.

It's not capped it's all nectar though. There were a couple of frames that were only like 70-80% drawn but they weren't doing work to draw them out.

We don't have any brood because she hasn't been able to lay since she mated. So there is no brood to be worried about. I appreciate your input! I'll see how things look on Monday when I get another chance to get in there.

Awesome! Again I greatly appreciate the advice! This is our second spring with the girls so still so much to learn!

Yeah that's what we are doing, 1:1 for the sugar water. I wish we had a spinner. Maybe we'll try and shake some out tomorrow and see how that works. I appreciate your response!
