Masta Patent - Military Mount

klause · Dec 12, 2015

This one surprised me when I removed the stem:

I saw this:

Never seen a military mount like it. Had a look around, and it seems it's one of these:

It's kind of like a Peterson System.

Double reverse calabash technology?

Everyone was trying to get that edge on the perfect smoke, they really did go to great lengths!
Tell me about those hallmarks please. You really have a great eye for finding the most interesting pipes.

What a handsome little pipe. The proportions are wonderful. I agree you do have an eye for great pipes.

I was under the impression that military or Army mounts didn't have tenons.

@ssjones - Those are faux hallmarks. The cap is electroplated nickel.

Al, piffyr's spot on. Faux marks (I usually see those on French pipes), and the EP stamp. It's a super little pipe, and should clean up nicely.
Ray, it's not a tenon, more of a condenser - it is indeed a military mount.

Okay, I see what you mean. My bad.

Great find. Beautiful, interesting and a military mount. What else?
Cheers,
