from what i've gathered an a/b extraction on dried pods (or seeds) yields nothing.
I've been looking all over the interwebs for a fairly easy pod extraction and can't find anything that yields a smoke-able final product. (besides the link below)
There was part of a tek someone described in the big and dandy pod thread but i don't feel like reading through 20 something pages for an incomplete tek. but from what i remember, apparently by adjusting pH, morphine freebase will precipitate out of the solution then it's just evap-ing, or turning it into its salt form. if anyone knows this tek please share (not the vague and complicated tek that is on the shroomery and other sites). I'm positive that if there was a simple tek that yielded a product of decent purity, junkies everywhere would rejoice.
the below method probably works (i don't know first hand) but from reading it, i feel like i'd mess it up somehow.
Besides chemical extractions there is

I hope this helps someone out. and please correct me if i'm wrong about an A/B on pods, but i'm pretty sure it doesn't work.
edit: another tek with a similar method and a better explanation IMO:

I might have to try this......someday. After doing the google, this method seems pretty straight forward. if anyone has good results, please share.
last edit i promise: from the above tek "Acid or base addition is unnecessary and unwanted because of possible decomposition of the maleate salt,
into possibly less soluble constituents."
