Rust Waterpipe Shotgun (Default Skin)

Rust Waterpipe Shotgun in its Default Skin, hand-painted as a 1:1 lifesize prop. 81cm, made from PLA and hand-airbrushed in our Bavarian workshop. The cheap scrap gun every fresh spawn crafts first, straight off the screen.

Rust's Waterpipe Shotgun, on your shelf

In Rust the Waterpipe Shotgun (also written waterpipe or water pipe) is the scrap gun a fresh spawn builds before anything else: short range, heavy punch, and it decides the opening fights of a wipe. This is the Default Skin, the gun as it leaves the crafting menu with no workshop skin over it, at its full 81cm.

The stock reads olive to khaki in a wood-look finish, wrapped layer over layer in pale strips that cross each other. A red plate with white lettering sits underneath, half buried by the wrapping. Barrel, breech and drum go the other way: coppery rust brown in a metal-look finish, with three clamps and rows of rivet heads. All of it is printed and painted on, which is why the wrapping crosses the seams without a break.

Each Waterpipe is hand-finished in Bavaria: made from PLA at 81cm, hand-airbrushed, sealed. Stand it on a shelf, lay it across a desk, or put it in your stream backdrop. Official Rust merchandise, built to display for years.

What players ask about the Waterpipe

What is the Waterpipe in Rust? It's the Waterpipe Shotgun, the cheap early-game scrap gun crafted from a length of water pipe. For most fresh spawns it's the first real weapon they own.

How big is it? 81cm, 1:1 lifesize. Full size, not a mini.

Is it made of metal? No. It's made from PLA and hand-airbrushed. The barrel carries a metal-look finish and the stock a wood-look one, so you get the in-game look at a fraction of the weight.
