Not purchased, but generously given to me by @ncrobb; a Peterson System Standard 307 in fantastic condition. Many thanks, Robb! She's a beauty!

Putting the first bowl through it right now! Smokes nice and easy, great draw, no effort. Due to the p-lip I have to take more of the stem into my mouth for the clench, but that's just something to get used to. And the smoke feels different in the mouth, hitting the palate instead of the tounge...but it's not unpleasant, just unfamiliar. All in all, so far, I'm lovin' this pipe! :thumbs:

On the p lip, if you have really small drill bits, you can open them up incrementally and it makes a world of difference.

And change the direction of the airflow as well if you are so inclined.

I'm an idiot with tools, so would probably ruin it or something. 😆 So, I'd best leave well enough alone and enjoy it as it is.
