Hmmm. Are these pistol grips or a pipe? The shells confuse me. I guess I should ask, what do the shells have to do with the pipe?

 

[olkofri]

Thought you had said no more pipes? ?

It's going to be a "Six Smoker" (think Six Shooter a la Colt revolver) with six carousel-style tobacco chambers at the end of the stem.

Fill with different blends, index by hand while smoking to get the perfect taste at the perfect moment, etc.

Brilliant.

 

[georged]

Holy shit, I was right! lol (except for the indexable part)

Use live rounds, like a pipe smoking Russian roulette. One day you're puffing like a freight train, bang!. One cooks off = new sunroof.

Looks like an acrylic stem?

 

[snagstangl]

Sure, I can throw a handful of random crap on a table too and say its going to be a pipe.

Dude...you've got unspent primers attached to the bottom of your pipe.

There's got to be all kinds of possibilities of what could be done with that on a boring day.......

A little oil, WD-40, etc. in the casing will inactivate the primers but retain the unfired look

I’ve always heard it will. I’ve never actually put it to the test. ?‍
