That looks better in your hand than the listing..enjoy!Mr Beardsley wrote: ↑Thu Apr 04, 2019 6:41 pm My super cool medico Lancer brylon pot showed up yesterday. I'll be cleaning it tomorrow most likely and then it will get tossed into service. Respectable cake in the chamber so someone sure enjoyed the way it smokes.

How's the weight on yours? I am calling B.S. on the whole myth of them being super heavy. Mine is a standard 6" length, and it comes in at 1.5oz(44 grams). It's lighter than my Stanwell 51 and my Three Star Bulldog. Mine smokes dang good, and the bowl stays cool.Mr Beardsley wrote: ↑Thu Apr 04, 2019 7:39 pmIt's definitely in better shape than the listing made it appear to beBruyere_Royale wrote: ↑Thu Apr 04, 2019 7:04 pmThat looks better in your hand than the listing..enjoy!Mr Beardsley wrote: ↑Thu Apr 04, 2019 6:41 pm My super cool medico Lancer brylon pot showed up yesterday.

That is about the same weight as a Dunhill gp 4 billiard. The Riviera pot I have in rotation now is 30.9 g. The Icarus is 43.7 g.houtenziel wrote: ↑Thu Apr 04, 2019 7:48 pmHow's the weight on yours?

So I'll retract my statement of the brylon being a brick, it's heavy but not too insane. Weighs in at 1.7oz, 48.2 grams for those of you playing at home. It is oddly top heavy at the bowl which is what made me think it was heavier than the actual numbers
