My Pens thus far

This is my collection so far, thanks to STLMike.

It's between the B&B essential (since I've sorted it out), and the Parker urban. They both write very smoothly and I like the lines they put down.
 
I would really love to pick up a couple Morrison patriots. I want one as a gift for a friend that is commissioning in May, and one for myself. If I can only afford one, then it goes to the friend, but if I can work out two then .... We shall see I suppose.
 
There are two or three army models on eBay now.

I have contacted 2 of the 3 that I saw, and neither of them knows anything about FPs, and can't tell me if they even work... I'm a college student/soldier and sadly can't invest $50 into buying the pen and then another $50 into restoring them. We shall see if I can get it figured out. Might have to wait till another comes around.
 
I'm almost certain the filling system will need to be restored. The piston is made from cork and the second rubberized fiberboard.
 
I kinda figured that would be the case. Though I saw somewhere that one can replace the filling system with that of another Morrison FP as they are generally the same system.
