The new Paxman pipe will not fit a 1980 Model 20, otherwise I would order a Paxman leadpipe. The problem is that the mouthpiece receiver is so worn that the mouthpiece extends too far into the leadpipe. Is there a way to repair this condition? By the way Hans, in American English, you can even "smell" the results of a bad leadpipe. Luke Zyla Hi Luke, Check to see where the venturi is relative to the end of the mpc. That is more important than how far the mpc goes into the receiver. If the mpc shank goes past the venturi, the shank can be replaced or otherwise enlarged by the Moose or other mpc magician. Also, I think the receiver can be swaged back to the original size by a competent repair person. Maybe our repair folks can jump in on that one. Are you sure that the Paxman folks can't make a replacement pipe for your horn?
