I am considering purchasing a Bullet pipe and wanted to get some feed back on them.
Is there advantages or disadvantages to them?

Are the difficult to clean, pack, smoke?

what should I expect to pay for a good one, estate or new?

Is there anything i need to know about owning one?

Lol, what are you guys smokeing in your pipe tobacco blends??? :crazy:

I was thinking it could be a good break pipe at work.
Although it would be fun to mess with the cops in my city, that seems to be the only thing they try to pull beople over for.
I think that maybe a zepalin pipe is what I am thinking of.

I agree with nsfisher... it's a novelty.
"fun to mess with the cops"... well, good luck with that.

Yeah just looked at it. Looks like it could use some tlc and a good waxing. Toss it in with the brass flip top hornstem I purchased from you. Did you get my PM? Send me the total for both + shipping please.
Now I am going to need some ideas as of what to expect from this odd shaped pipe. Any one smoke one before that can give me some insight?

I figure the tobacco can't be too moist. May just a little.

Never heard of a bullet pipe. Google came up with this:

Is that what your talking about?

Would seem a bit too small for tobacco...
ETA: Ah, missed the link to the Zeppelin. Now those have always had me curious.

Whilst "messing with the cops" might be a fun as an extreme sport, please be a little careful. In some places it is an offence to carry what might be viewed as "drug paraphernalia" even if you are otherwise "clean".

I was just checking as here in the UK a bullet pipe would allow the Police to do a full stop and search as it would give them a reasonable suspicion that you might be carrying drugs. As someone who was often stopped when I was younger (manly because I have long hair and walked home late at night) I was always keen not to provoke the police more than declining to provide my name and address already did!
