The Lead Pipe is a weapon in Max Payne.
Characteristics[]
The Lead Pipe is a rather short piece of metal, used as an improvised combat instrument. It deals relatively little damage, but is swung fast. It requires the user to approach the intended target to a very close distance, this way dangerously exposing the bearer to any incoming attacks. The armament is weaker than the Baseball Bat, as it has a shorter reach and deals less damage. This rudimentary weapon is primarily used to break open containers without wasting ammunition, or as a last resort option in combat if the the player runs out of ammo.
Max Payne starts with the pipe in Part I and Part III; it can never be picked up in-game. In Part II, only the baseball bat is available as a melee weapon. The only NPC that uses this weapon is a mobster in the chapter Fear That Gives Men Wings.
