Pipe gun (Fallout 76)

	For the pipe bolt-action, see Pipe bolt-action (Fallout 76). For the pipe revolver, see Pipe revolver (Fallout 76).

The pipe gun is a modular weapon in Fallout 76.

Characteristics[]

The pipe pistol is a makeshift firearm constructed using wood scraps, metal pipes, screws, springs and metal bands. It fires .38 rounds from a magazine loaded into the left side of the gun. When modded with a stock, it will be a pipe rifle and will be affected by rifle perks instead of pistol perks. While the pipe gun can be a useful weapon, its condition degrades quickly compared to machined guns. This quick deterioration is offset by investing in the Licensed Plumber perk.

Locations[]

• One can be found in a Responder corpse to the right of the exit to Vault 76.
• One can be found next to the body of Sofie Yates in Flatwoods, on the back porch of the house past the overpass when entering the town.
• One can be found in stash M-3 at Morgantown (the bank), once the door is unlocked during Back on the Beat.
• Can be purchased for 200 Nuka Points from a Prize Terminal in the Nuka Cade.
• Initially craftable at a weapons workbench.
• Wielded by Scorched enemies and super mutants.

Notes[]

• Unlike the pipe revolver and pipe bolt-action, this pipe weapon does not benefit from Gunslinger (Fallout 76) when modified with a stock.
• The pipe gun has a separate reload animation that is used when the drum magazine mod is applied to the weapon, but only exists for first person view.
