Merger

Merge - same topic but using different name SirIsaacBrock 11:30, 15 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- this term can apply to swords and other mêlée weapons if a merge shall be done, then it needs to be merged the other way /Grön^sv 11:40, 15 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I feel there is no reason to merge, hanguns which are not carried are not sidearms. They can, at times, be mutually exclusive.

Someone suggested merging this with handgun? Against such a future merger. Mathiastck 16:39, 23 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think that the inclusion of Main-Gauche and Wakizashi do not fit the context of this article, as they are presented as an alternate definition of a sidearm, rather than unique weapons in their own right.

Move?

To Sidearm (weapon) and move the current Sidearm article to Sidearm (baseball). --Phil1988 (talk) 23:24, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
