I love guns, enjoy bourbon, and occasionally like a good cigar or pipe tobacco. In that spirit, I like "ATF" photos of alcohol, tobacco & firearms. Anyone else like taking/posing pics like that or other things?
-disclaimer- I don't condone mixing alcohol and firearms, I just enjoy the pics.
Here are a few I took today.

Im confused a bit.

Is that a pot running into a thump keg and worm on one side while another line running to a stairstep on the other?

None of that. It is a coal fired steam boiler on the right, connected to a still pot (silver), connected to a doubler (thumper) and then to another doubler. No cooler seen in this shot.

Here's a shot from another angle, that shows the fermenter boxes up front, and cooler barrel on left. It had a copper coil inside....

As to the tobacco and firearms part, the man pictured is Bennie Halstead, that is a cigar in his mouth, and there was S&W 38-44 was on his right hip.

And all the while I'm still sitting here wondering why his cigar cutter wasn't in the shot..... or maybe he just uses his pocket knife?
