I was so excited to get my Shi Carver Minigun in today! I'll start off by saying the craftsmanship is solid and the look is pretty slick. Comes in a sweet black plastic case, not super sturdy like a pelican case, but you could definitely throw some lightweight items in there if you wanted to repurpose it. I was really disappointed that it didn't come in the wooden crate that a lot of the videos online show. I'm guessing between that and the overall look is a bit different than some pictures shown even in the thumbnails it was probably a limited run when Shi Carver first produced them. All that being said, it's a sweet hookah, smokes well but if you're looking for this style (Gattling Gun with smoking barrels) I was able to snag it's little brother (The Micro Gun) a few years ago while it was still available and being the price difference is almost 200 dollars, the purge valves/barrels on the micro gun actually rotate, and it's only a couple inches of height difference shorter, I definitely would choose the micro gun everytime.
