M9 (history - links - logs)

I suggest we split the M9 apart into M9 and M9A1. They look like 2 different guns, and the M9A1 seems to be a variant of the M9. RisingSun2013 (talk) 22:12, March 19, 2014 (UTC)

Keep

Keep — There's no major difference between the M9 and M9A1 to warrant it having a separate page. Per the naming policy "If a weapon looks the same, functions the same, but is named differently, merge." and "If a weapon is named the same, functions the same, but looks differently, merge.".

Keep — As Sam said, there's no major difference to warrant a split (including the Extinction variant). If that were the case, we should split the Colt M1911 from World at War from the rest of the M1911 page, just because the name is different and it has a different function in zombies when it's upgraded. Besides, the campaign and multiplayer have the weapon as a semi-auto handgun. The difference in name and appearance is negligible because it's not a major change. It's nothing like the KSG situation. Yes, the guns looked the same (for the most part at least), and had similar names, but the function of them were completely different. One was a weapon that fired multiple, range limited, shot-ammo/pellets and the other fired one medium-ranged slug shot. Now, what's the difference with the M9 and M9A1? Okay, the addition of two characters into the name isn't much of big deal. It has a flashlight now, again not a big deal as the CoD4 USP.45 had an unusable underbarrel attachment in CoD 4 but the MW2 & 3 versions didn't. A different magazine size isn't really a point either, as the M1911, Thompson, etc., have had different mag sizes as well. And there's no difference in function, as they're both Semi-Automatic.  Kylet357 · talk  05:41, March 20, 2014 (UTC)

Keep — I get your point now. Wasn't considering it like that. http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2013/276/1/2/bionicle__unity_duty_destiny_by_cyberpictures-d6p3li2.pngLegos-Rule-15 ^Talk 05:46, March 20, 2014 (UTC)

Keep — They function the same. Same reasoning as having Vector, Vector K10 and Vector CRB merged together. --Ultimate94ninja (talk) 10:12, March 20, 2014 (UTC)

Keep — Per the reasons above. Argorrath _{おしゃべり}20:29, March 20, 2014 (UTC)

Split/Merge

Split-As nominator. RisingSun2013 (talk) 22:12, March 19, 2014 (UTC)

Split- Per nominator. This is exactly like the KSG and KSG-12 case. http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2013/276/1/2/bionicle__unity_duty_destiny_by_cyberpictures-d6p3li2.pngLegos-Rule-15 ^Talk 01:33, March 20, 2014 (UTC)

well, the ksg and ksg 12 are technically the same weapon, just two different names, but these are two different weapons as a whole. RisingSun2013 (talk) 01:35, March 20, 2014 (UTC)

It should be noted that the KSG and KSG-12 have a major difference in how they operate however. While both being the same version of gun in real life, in game one is buckshot and the other is slug. Making them drastically different, unlike the M9 and M9A1.

I'm noting that the M9A1 is 3-round burst in Extinction, and that trait is not shared with the normal M9. I don't know if this is major enough, but if the ammo type made a split between the KSG and KSG12, then I believe this is a large enough reason to split. http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2013/276/1/2/bionicle__unity_duty_destiny_by_cyberpictures-d6p3li2.pngLegos-Rule-15 ^Talk 03:23, March 20, 2014 (UTC)

Comments/Questions

• There's something that I wonder, however. Like RisingSun2013 said, the M9A1 is another variant of the M9. They both function the same indeed, but there are other pages with the same fact that are actually separate (such as the M60 and M60E4). --Ultimate94ninja (talk) 10:20, March 20, 2014 (UTC)
