Just thought I'd give a head's up to those interested. Missouri Meerschaum has a "Christmas Gift Set 2020" for sale that includes a nice finished cob with acrylic bit (I own two of the bent ones and they smoke really well) and a MM monogram tobacco pouch for $48.99. This is a pretty good deal because separately this set would be about $58. I needed a new pouch anyway and saw this so I figured for what amounted to an extra $15 for the pipe with acrylic bit, I'd get it. It doesn't say if it has the hardwood plug or not, but all their pipes with this finish have them, and so do all their pipes with acrylic bits, so I'm assuming this one does as well.
