One of those things I didn't like the look of a couple of years ago and now that I acquired a few it just seems "normal". I assume it isn't considered a deluxe system without it? Now I can read and view on the laptop instead of on my phone in the wee, bleary eyed hours, I see the "scaled down" aspect vs. the original in terms of the stem, with the BC, and to me, that is huge plus, IMO.I'm just not that big a fan of the wear-gap stem. I know, blasphemy. I can feel you all throwing your empty tobacco tins at me, stop it!)

Bring out the monster!!!!
Yeah, I'm not that into that shape, but nice blasting.Hmm, not sure about this one. Love the BC stem, the stain, the finish, but I’m on the fence about the shape.
I rather like the wear gap. I have 4 deluxe system pipes with it and, of course, the pub pipe has it.I'm just not that big a fan of the wear-gap stem. I know, blasphemy. I can feel you all throwing your empty tobacco tins at me, stop it!)
Enjoying it right now! It’s a filter and without the filter the draw is effortless!I got the email. I pre-ordered one.
Last year I ordered one and after it arrived another PPN popped up on SPC on the "Fresh pipe" list. I immediately snatched it up. Having two, I sold one to a fellow Pete Geek (a great guy) here on the forum for what I paid. I knew he missed out on the pre-order.
Oh man if they just offered this again in a different stain that would’ve been an easy win. I don’t think the 5 is similar in shape to the pub; I find the pub far nicer.Enjoying last year’s right now. And not wanting to start an argument, but looking this lovely pub I’m thinking the new PPN is kind of a the similar shape with a little flourish!View attachment 245873
Tim, my friend, you seemingly have MPD-"multiple pipe disorder."I agree!! That’s why I’m getting two.
Oh, I definitely have problems.Tim, my friend, you seemingly have MPD-"multiple pipe disorder."

That is the pipe that started my love affair with the 9/307 and it gets smoked a lot. But it’s very hard to pick just one out of the lot. With the exception of the unsmoked 0 because I’ve never smoked it, there isn’t a bum smoker in the bunch. They all smoke fantastically, but the one I smoke the absolute most is the XL307 with the fat flair on the stem. Don’t know why, I just do. But the dark 9BC is probably the most pleasant to hold, it just has a great hand feel. It’s a very tactile pipe, and it’s not too bad to look at either.Oort that is a lovely photo of some lovely pipes. I’m guessing that the dark 9BC is the favorite because of its positioning (at least it’s my favorite of your set).
Lovely collection. Shame you photographed them with a pair of your undies as the backgroundWith the addition of this 53 and X69 my Pre-Republic / Roger’s era Shamrock collection is up to 13! Thanks @ashdigger for the X69!View attachment 246116View attachment 246117View attachment 246118View attachment 246119View attachment 246120
Dark 9BC is obviously #1 but that dark 999 is definitely giving it a run for it’s money!With the addition of this 53 and X69 my Pre-Republic / Roger’s era Shamrock collection is up to 13!
