LWRC worth the money?
Knights Armament or Noveske The KAC would be my choice. Or get a White Oak upper and build your own lower and shoot some open sights.

Please help my dog and medical expenses
Done via PP. Lost one cat on a Monday in December. He was the first one that just showed up at the house and needed a home. He was rather old so not a total shock. Later that same week our female cat coughed a few times let out a loud meow and plopped at my wife's feet breathing very hard.. We rushed her to our vet, he stabilized her and later we brought her to Crown Vet in Lebanon. She has heart trouble and is now on Lasix and a few more meds. I can't say enough about the staff at Crown vet, NortStar and my own vet. I know what the bills are like.

Need some ideas in a new revolver
@Samdjr74 Maybe something like this. S&W Model 178030 Model 686 PLUS - Combat Magnum, Super Tuned I think the 929 has made this one expendable.

New S&W
My new toy, S&W 929. Picked it up Wednesday, moon clips came on Thursday and off to the frozen Tundra of EFGA this morning. I really like the way this shoots. I'm thinking it may be time to get rid of the 686 plus with 6" barrel. Need to change the front sight though.

Looking for recomendations for a bed and breakfast
+1 For Williamsburg, VA Also Chincoteague, VA Hudson Valley is very nice, but I wouldn't go unless the mansions were open (Montgomery Place, Wilderstein, Olana, Vanderbilt, Mills mansion, etc) Probably outside the price but Mohonk Mountain House is a great place with excellent hiking.

Moon Clips and the .45 ACP Revolver
Thanks Bob. Looks like I need another order from Brownells. Edit: Just watched the BMT video. I think that will be the first purchase after I get a 929. Looks amazingly quick.

Shongum USPSA 4/5 - Registration Open
Yes, that's why some people shoot revolvers anyway. If your GP100 has a 4" barrel you should give the IDPA match at EFGA a go. I don't have a holster but I could loan a few speedloaders and holders for the match (looks like 686 and GP100 use the same COMP III). http://www.safariland.com/DutyGear/product.aspx?pid=COMP%20III https://www.efga.net/efga-events/

Question on Gallery of Guns Stock Watch??
I usually go to slick guns, enter the model number and then (if no one has anything in stock) do a stock watch with the companies that come up in the search. Never had much luck with gallery of guns when the item is not in stock.

What Are You Thinking About Purchasing?
S&W 929, S&W 625 mountain gun in 45 colt or Ruger Sass Vaquero set in 357.

1911 Opinions
I found another choice. Now sitting at my LGS. Thanks for the opions. Damn the Turnbull was tempting but not sure if this is going to get shot all that much. I didn't know STI made this model.

1911 Opinions
Well if I did go for the Turnbull Sass model I'd never be able to change my sass alias - it gets engraved on the slide.

1911 Opinions
Thanks all. Those were the models knew met this reuqrement: "non-adjustable “military style” rear sights and blade type front sights" @BlueLineFinish, I really appreciate that but I'm about a mile from the Delaware, although close to 78.

1911 Opinions
Starting to look for a new 1911, a more traditional gun that can be used for wild bunch CAS. So far my options seem to be Springfield mil-spec, Remington R1, Colt 01991, Armscor (either Rock Island or model offered by Cimarron). I think Para was making a SASS 1911 did not see it on there website. Love the new Turnbull model but am not looking to spend anywhere near that for this gun. Anyone have any of these? Any I should steer clear of or any head and shoulders above the rest? Did I miss any? Thanks!
