Peterson System Question

[augaug]

Could someone give me the hierarchy of the Peterson System pipes? Like is there a low, mid- and high grade? or just the regular ones and then the ones with spigots etc? I'm just trying to figure out the family of the system pipes, thanks!

Ok thanks, it's just confusing, at smokingpipes.com for instance, they don't seem to use that nomenclature, simply Molly, Sherlock, etc. and the ability to sort by price or look at all the system pipes, and so unless it says "system" in the name, it's not a system pipe then (for example are spigots system pipes?)? Thanks!

For example this guy:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Peterson-Killarney-80S-Pipe-New-2nd-Mouthpiece-AND-Tobacco-/251230075605?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3a7e7abad5&ssPageName=RSS:B:SHOP:US:101
shows pictures of the "system" with an 80S, which is not called a "system" pipe, is this ad just wrong, or does the inside of this pipe have the "System" drilling? Sorry to beat a dead horse but I'm confused once again.
Thanks!

The killarney line is not a system pipe, as said before system is in the name of a system pipe.

Ok, so that information in the ad is just incorrect, and any Peterson without system in the name is drilled like any other pipe? I think there are others, obviously from this ad on eBay, that think all Peterson's have the gravity trap system...Thanks! ::

IIRC, Mark Twain and Darwin are Deluxe System pipes, Molly Malone or Sherlock Holmes series are not.

Look at the International Peterson Pipe Club site. They have all kinds of charts & catalogs.

As mentioned, the Deluxe Pete's are system pipes. If you are looking to get a superb Pete system pipe, look into an estate deluxe.
