A few years ago, Johnny Flake sent me one of the neatest tampers I've seen. He had taken a spent .223 shell and inverted a wooden golf tee in the throat of the brass. You can use the tee to tamp or pull it out to remove any residual stuff in the bottom of the pipe after a smoke.

Thanks for the kind words Jim! That set up really works very well and it's super cheap to make. Unfortunately, I have run out of .223 casings, however, I have a shit load of golf tees! LOL!

Johnny


Were you the one selling similar ones on ebay not too long ago?

~Johnny O....maybe I could be Johnny Plug...or Johnny Course Cut... Razz

No, that was not me! I have never sold any tampers on eBay.
