Early gun barrels were made from steeled iron wrapped around a form, or wound around a form (so-called "damascus" or twist barrels).
Modern firearms use alloy steels which are forged and machined. Not poured and cast pig iron. The usual alloys are 416 stainless, or the 4130-4150 range of chrome-molybdenum steels.
Modern gun barrels have to withstand up to 70,000 psi (pounds per square inch).
Iron pipe is mainly used for rainwater soak aways... go figure
