How on earth do you use Pilot's proprietary cartridges! I'm probably being stupid, but I just exploded one all over myself trying to put one into my new Pilot Metro....  I don't normally use cartridges, but when I have before they have been the international standard short ones, not this weird long thing with a lip. Sadly the pen didn't come with a convertor?! These things...  I'm not sure I love this Metro btw.... Maybe it's just the cartridge issue, but it feels quite....light and plasticky? Definitely compared to my recent Monteverde and old Parker. I suppose it has quite a smooth nib for a cheap(ish) pen. Still, all of your praise feels like a eulogy to me, thread

It didn't have a converter at all! I assume that perhaps it should have though? I got it from Cult Pens (UK). Yeah, I guessed it was fat end first, but the nipple on the pen doesn't seem to want to break the plastic of the cartridge The standard cartridges that I've used just popped onto the pen nipple very easily and stayed attached.I was pushing pretty hard and the sidewall popped haha. Blue ink pretty much everywhere
