Okay, I got this...you take the gun and point it back and forth at both if them and force them to fight it out.
Then shoot the winner of the two.
Wait, how big lead pipes are we talking about here? 3 foot in diameter or length?

Can we sharpen the tip of the lead pipe?
Could we attach sharp objects into the lead pipe?

Could we have one of those lead pipes that has multiple other lead pipes on it?
Could we use the pipe as a BLOW PIPE?

[QUOTE=fpliii]Say you're in a 3-man fight to the death. The fight takes place in a small-ish area (say 50x50 feet, and you're caged in), relatively featureless (i.e. no room for cover). Your opponents are two individuals of similar size/build to yourself.
You get to choose your weapon first, any of the three in the title (knife, 3-foot lead pipe, pistol with 1 bullet). What's your selection, and why?[/QUOTE]
Definitely pistol. Reason being I think it ensure the highest chance of survival.
First, if you pick any of the other two weapons, your survival chance already dropped to 50% at the very start. The pistol guy can choose whoever he wanted to kill.
Second, lead pipe isn't that scary. It could be devastating but it's freakin heavy and in such a small space it would be prone to rush tactic.
Third, knife guy is likely to be the one to get shot. I would definitely shoot the knife guy and take his knife if I can. If I can't then I can throw the pistol and bumrush the pipe guy.

:roll:
But i dont think that will work, the handgun guy will be #1 priority...
[QUOTE=pauk][B] A pipe is a blunt object and you will get only one strike to determine whether your opponent can endure that hit [/B][/QUOTE]
Yeah maybe if your arms were made of spaghetti. :oldlol:
Maybe in your specific case since you're fighting people the same relative height/weight as you, going with the knife would be best since you probably wouldn't even be able to lift the pipe over your head.

I like how you just ripped off my idea from two posts earlier :rant
[QUOTE=macmac]I like how you just ripped off my idea from two posts earlier :rant[/QUOTE]
Can you count?
Not having read any posts I'd probably take the pistol and do my best to make sure I landed it. I'd aim for the torso, definitely wouldn't go for a head shot. From there hope it cripples him enough to go one on one with the second guy. The thought of having the lead pipe or knife taken from me and then beaten/stabbed with it takes them out of the discussion. The pipe would be the easiest of the three to have taken away but probably the most effective due to the space you can keep.
Pistol
Pipe
Knife
I'm assuming that neither of them have a weapon
ah, i misread. Well if we're all getting one of the three I'd definitely take the gun being that its insta kill. I'd shoot dude with the pipe :lol then again idk, it'd be a lot easier to dodge a swing from the pipe than being cut or stabbed by the knife. No yea, I'd shoot dude with the pipe and then take the pipe

You're just asking for them to team up on you :oldlol:
[QUOTE=-p.tiddy-]The correct answer is gun...
Shoot the man with the knife...take the knife...stab the man with the pipe[/QUOTE]
It'd be easier the other way around imo. I'd rather the pipe over the knife

[QUOTE=macmac]I like how you just ripped off my idea from two posts earlier :rant[/QUOTE]
My bad didnt see...you get cred for the correct answer
The only logical answer here is gun.
You guarantee yourself a 50% chance of survival. You have a weapon guaranteed of being a one shot stopper.
Taking anything other than the gun immediately puts your life in danger from the get go. You could be the one shot with the gun if you don't choose it.
And never was it implied that people act rationally and logically. Who knows, maybe the other guys attack each other before going for the guy with the gun.
At the very worst, even after firing it, you still have an extremely heavy object to throw, or distract someone with.
Can it be a .50 cal explosive/incendiary round? :)
Shooting someone with a gun at close range is very easy.
This isn't the matrix, in the real world people can't dodge bullets
Just take your time, aim...shoot...man down
you want to know what most can't do? Fight with a knife or club...that takes actual skill.
It doesn't have to be a kill shot.

You obviously have no idea what you're talking about. Hitting a moving target with a single bullet in a life or death situation would be incredibly difficult.
Real life is not like a movie or Call of Duty. All these incredible shots you see on TV don't ever happen in reality. I guarantee you if I took you to a shooting range you wouldn't hit the bullseye on a stationary piece of paper with your first shot, let alone a moving target.
[QUOTE=macmac] far as the pistol, it better be a goddamn magnum with a 44 caliber at least[/QUOTE]
Yes.

3 foot length, whichever diameter you want within reason
You can fashion the pipe however you choose, but remember that you'd have to do this during live combat in a constrained area. I guess if you steal the knife guy's weapon you can attach it, but I don't know how you'd acquire darts or needles for a blow pipe.
[QUOTE=pauk]Can it be a .50 cal explosive/incendiary round? :)[/QUOTE]
Standard round (maybe piercing, but I'm trying to underpower the gun in order to make all three options relatively equally attractive).

I'm a gun owner and go to the range somewhat often...its you who has no idea what your talking about...do you think these guys are just going to run in circles forever? Lol
A woman can shoot a pistol...and they do
If you can't shoot someone close range with a pistol, then you are probably 10x as worthless with a malee weapon
Just about everyone in this thread seems to think movies = RL.
Give me a gun with one bullet vs. anyone with any blunt object and I am winning 100 times out of 100...unless of course you are Neo or Agent Smith

1. handguns
2. knives
3. blunt objects
why are murders at different rates with different weapons? they are listed by ease of use...it's really hard to kill someone with a pipe or bat, many times that ends up with both people holding it and pulling at it...whch is why killers have more success with knives, but of course a handgun takes the cake.
[QUOTE=pauk]Can it be a .50 cal explosive/incendiary round? :)[/QUOTE]
You're trying too hard to showoff your weapon knowledge. And with that knife you posted, I'm sure you would be gunman's priority target and gun>>>>knife...
Gun has too much power to pass up on it imo. With gun, you have one almost certain kill and you can try to take his weapon. If you choose knife or pipe, you have 50% of getting shot.
[QUOTE=-p.tiddy-]Or unless the shooter has the brains to simply pick up the weapon of the man he just shot[/QUOTE]
Apparently you don't have to brains to consider the guy with the pipe isn't gonna let you pick up the knife un-contested; PT just got a pipe to the skull.
[QUOTE=DeuceWallaces]Apparently you don't have to brains to consider the guy with the pipe isn't gonna let you pick up the knife un-contested; PT just got a pipe to the skull.[/QUOTE]
This is why it's too risky to be offensive in this situation unless you are overly skilled compared to the other two guys of if the other guy is too much of a ***** to do anything after you kill your first target.

I'll say it's Professor Plum in the Conservatory with the Candlestick.
Drat! I was wrong......
[QUOTE=ProfessorMurder]Murder rates are different because of different weapon availabilities and killing power. It's much easier to get a gun, have it in your pocket and then shoot someone than it is to bludgeon someone to death.
A gun also leaves less time for the assailant to think about their actions. One pull of the trigger and the person could die. You have to wreck someone repeatedly with a blunt object to kill them, most people would probably realize they should stop before it gets to the point of brains on the floor... Then it would just be assault charges or attempted murder.[/QUOTE]
handguns are the hardest to aquire of the 3...but killing power was my point...A handgun is the easiest to use and the most lethal...then a knife...then a blunt object.
Blunt objects are the easiest to aquire, and the least amount of deaths...anyone can aquire a pipe or a hammer or a bat...but it is more difficult to kill someone with a blunt object than a knife which sees more murders and obviously a gun which sees the most.
[QUOTE=ProfessorMurder]Yeah it does. If this is to the death someone that was merely winged by a bullet isn't going to stop and cry about it.
The other guy would then go after the gun holder because the gun has no power once the bullet is shot. (Assuming everyone knows about the 1 bullet caveat)[/QUOTE]
I don't know what "winged" means to you but if you are shot in the torso head or thigh you're going down unless it is a .22 calibre or something
getting shot in the arm then maybe you're right...but he is still at a disadvantage with only one arm
Gun obviously and without a question...
If you choose the gun, you're not getting shot, and who do you think the other two would go for? Who in his right mind would chose to attack a guy with a gun over a guy with a knife\pipe?
I would wait for knife vs pipe match up winner and i would kill him.
If some idiot try to attack me first, i would put a bullet in his head a proceed to pick up his knife\pipe.

You can tell the ones who don't shoot because they act like a gun is some magical death machine and shooting a moving target in the head with a single bullet is easy :roll:

This is absolutely meaningless. We're talking about a cage match with multiple armed people trying to kill you, not unsuspecting murder victims.

A bullet to about anywhere certainly will make people stop and cry about it.

A gun is literally a death machine lol
And these targets can't move forever
And I shoot all the time, I have a licence, I have taken classes...I don't think you do though
I'm leaning towards the lead pipe but then again that would leave you at a disadvantage due to how big it is and how it will basically cripple you.
The gun would be an instant kill but would it be easy to kill someone when they are running around? But then again if you had strong combat skills you can disarm the dude with the knife or lead pipe.
I'd probably go for the knife.
[QUOTE=bmulls]This is absolutely meaningless. We're talking about a cage match with multiple armed people trying to kill you, not unsuspecting murder victims.[/QUOTE]
It's not meaningless at all, and not all of these were unsuspecting assassinations...it is clear evidence of which tools are the most efficient for killing
