Lead Pipe (Fallout 3)

The Lead Pipe is a basic melee weapon found in Fallout 3. It's not a particularly useful or damaging weapon for the middle-to-end game, however it is widely available and inexpensive as a starting melee weapon. It is very decent: It has more DPS than the baseball bat (20 against 12), while having the same damage per hit (9).

Locations

 * Lead Pipes can be found on random Raiders and Wastelanders and in dwellings across the Wastelands.
 * They can found to at some metro stations, like Warrington Trainyard.
 * A nice stash (17, tough they are regrouped in a single collectable item, like if someone dropped them, in perfect conditions) can be found in the Enclave Mobile Base's Storage Room, close to one of the middle deck access hatches to the Entrance Bay.
