The 309 needs to come back. I prefer the 313 but I know a lot of guys love the bigger pipe. Such a classic shape shouldn't be retired. Same with the 308.

How big is the chamber on the 309 ? My Irish Second XL339S chamber is 18.5 by 38.5 mm. Just curious ...

I just checked my 40's-50's 309 and it is 18.5 mm by 42.5 mm.

According to the folks at peterson as ive heard it's just an issue of getting the briar for them, getting the stummels done, it's a popular shape same as the 308 but with the lack of blocks to be had for them it's just one of those things.

At one time I had four 4abs and about fourteen other 309s now I'm down to two 309s and two 4s pipes and I am okay with it. I found I like smaller chamber pipes these days for the strong Nicotine blends I prefer to smoke.

What I really wish was they did vulcanite stems for all of their deluxe systems especially the naturals. I love my 8s deluxe natural but I'd kill for it to have a vulcanite not acrylic stem.

As someone who's ok with acrylic I really don't think they should be on deluxes.

Fantastic find!
My first new Peterson was a 309 and she has been from Bali to Bolivia and smoked every possible combination of tobacco blends I’ve stuffed in it for over 30 years.
I hope you love it as much as I do mineView attachment 316799

This is my second 309. The first one is off getting a 4ab stem made for it.

The same shop had a stained Peterson B10 Celtic edition, it was a very nice looking pipe. Didn't have the box, or the original sock, and wouldn't budge off of his $360.00 price tag which is crazy! He said he had it for two years so it was worth more than that and it was a deal.

Yeah don't lowball the man; he knows what he's got. Also, the A/C blows cold.

I'm the same way ... all my pipes are "once smoked", "rare", "unique", "vintage", "collectable", "pre-loved" with "minor indications of handling" and "would make a fine addition to any serious enthusiast's collection" ... just ask me ...

I'd been looking at all manner of Bulldog types before I saw this one. Vulcanite stem, simplicity, it really appealed, had to have it.

I have a small, but much beloved, collection.

Very nice.
As a certified Pete neophyte, Are these two vulcanite AB stems?

They look like 2021 POTY 4AB's to me so while I am not the owner I'd say they probably are.

Thanks, I guess it’s easy to get good taste quickly surrounded by y’all.
