Another Pre-Republic Shamrock for my collection. A very lithe 936 bent Dutch billiard, a big thanks to @bayareabriar!

I’ve been after one of these for a while now. This is the first one I’ve seen for sale, strangely it was was not listed as what it actually was. A System Star 307. It was just listed as a system. The System Star was comparable to the System Premiere, it had sterling silver and a condenser but in a system standard configuration. I’ll post more photos once I have it in hand and cleaned up. 🥹

Today is big pipe day. A unbranded pipe caught my eye and eventually my mailbox.

This pipe is a little over 7 inches long. The bowl is 2 1/4 deep and 1 1/4 across



Here is is with some other large Pete’s

I got really lucky and picked up this Kapp Royal 264 with the briar inlay stem.
I bought the pipe off of eBay for $60.
I’m looking forward to getting it cleaned up.

If you think Petes have too much of a bend then this pipe is for you:

Just in case you guys didn’t see this:

Peterson NAP Stem 2.0 :: Pipe Repair and Maintenance

Some of you may recall my attempt to make a NAP stem a while back turned out kinda bulky. Well, I decided to give it another. I recently acquired a pretty rough pre-republic system (3) 12/312 from @bayareabriar thought it would be a good candidate for an amber acrylic NAP stem. So here ya go…...

Any of you guys think the Short Army line will come back? I regret sending back the smooth 102 I picked up from SP when they released.

When I saw that pipe originally on SP, I thought Peterson simply didn't bend that stem correctly. Should have more bend-that simply does not look good/right.

I hope so, I got 2 models and absolutely love them, especially the 69.
Like my 314's, I could have a stable full of those as daily workhorse smokers and be real happy.

Yeah it seems like its easy enough since they look like Irish Made Army pipes with shorter shanks and stems:

FT-Pete Silver Mounted Army 102 01.02.24 :: Pipes & Accessories Sell/Trade

I picked this up very lightly smoked, and have only had a couple bowls through it (light VaPers). Unfortunately for me, I clench and my teeth do or like acrylic at all. Hallmark is .925 and a italicized capital “I”, so I think it’s 2019. Seeing if anyone might want to trade for: -Short Army...

Thanks! I saw this and was tempted but it’s not a Short Army (though I know @Sobrbiker has a rusticated Short 102).
