What shape would you consider this? It is stamped with a 3 and when doing some looking, I found a page that says GBD shape 3 is a "tall bulldog". I am by no means an expert or really even a novice, but I'm not so sure that's a bulldog. Thoughts?

I’d say a billiard or a Canadian but not a bulldog, in the traditional sense anyway.
That would be my guess as well. The longer I try to see a bulldog, the more I see a billiard ?
A tapered stem straight billiard as @Chasing Embers and @alaskanpiper said.
That is clearly a Mongolian Hunting Pipe with a pressed Latinum inlay.
On second thought it does kind of look like a billiard.

Thanks for the confirmation all. I'm not mad about, looks to be a handsome pipe regardless! I'll have to take a closer look when it shows up.
The billiard is cool, but that 1/2 gill cup though! Makes me want a bowl of salty dogs and some Pussers gunpowder proof. Avast, ye swabs.
