Pipe pistol

The pipe pistol is a weapon that is featured in Fallout 4.

Characteristics
A crude homemade pistol built from rusty metal pipes, springs, duct tape, wood and scrap metal. It can be upgraded into a full-fledged rifle with the proper mods. Pipe weapons are acquired early on and can be seen relatively late in the game on all types of weaker enemies, but lose their effectiveness later on as more robust alternatives appear.

Locations

 * Common weapon for ranged Raiders. May have random modifications.
 * Default weapon for settlers.
 * A pipe bolt-action sniper rifle may be found next to a dead raider in an upstairs room of a house along the road north of the Museum of Freedom in Concord.
