I recently purchased a MM Country Gentleman and noticed quite a bit of glue in the chamber, kinda gunked up around where the shank and bowl meet. I have a few MM cobs (Legend, Pride, Washington) in my rotation and don't remember seeing any glue in them when they were new. Anyone else notice this with new MM cobs? Even though I'm probably just going to scrape off what I can with a small pocketknife blade and get on with it, there's a tiny part of me that is mildly concerned about smoking glue. But for the record, I really like MM's cobs and think they smoke wonderfully, and not just for the cost.
