And here it is! A 309 Spigot that comes with the option of a 9mm or condenser. I ordered mine with the condenser. Can't freaking wait to get this here.

I think the smooth is terrific and I've never been excited about the black sandblasts. Even signing up early in the morning I missed out on being among the first 40 by a long ways and am relegated to the black sandblast, which I'll be passing on now I've had a few days to think about it. Too bad Peterson wouldn't allow more than 40 - IMO the whole run should have been the smooth, but . . . they didn't consult me!

The smooth is very nice. I like the black sandblast as I don't feel bad about smoking them.

How do you know you missed out on the smooth?

Outstanding pipes.

That silver cap is a specimen.

Where are you finding these pipes? I understand if you don’t want to reveal your sources. lol.
I snagged the silvercap of SP.com estates. The others I bought from a guy in TX and occasionally he buys from me as well. He's got an ebay store you can check out. Occasionally he gets some crazy pipes and some of these are from his personal collection as well.

Just received my 2024 Xmas from GQ tobacco.

When I first picked it up and attempted to pull the stem free, the stem came out but the copper spigot part stayed. Is this normal?

I'm sad to say I've recently had a similar (shoddy craftsmanship?) with a different model of brand new Peterson recently.
I was going to ask if just some simple super (CA) glue would be appropriate to do my own repair....
On my pipe it was the ferrule came off just like that, you can see where the glue appeared to only be on a portion of the circumference between the two surfaces....................
