AnonymousWhy is my pipe pistol silver? The rusty part isn't rusty anymore and is more like steel and this has been going on for months and I'm not sure if it's a visual glitch or not but the thought of it is driving me insane
- Anonymous
Since I've found way more .38 ammo than anything in the early game, I'd like to use this gun for as many fights as possible. However, it seems that even though I upgrade it's power it still is a pretty ineffective weapon in the Commonwealth. Are there any builds that make the thing worth it? Or am I doomed to have a ton of ammo that I just can't use ...

This gun sucks I’m almost every way, except in its versatility and ability to be used in almost every situation. .38 ammo is the most plentiful by far and the amount of attachments for this gun is insane. As such, it will fill almost every niche, including some that couldn’t be filled by any other gun in the game. — The Fist of Fury
