My topic about the discussion of Firearms vs weapons was specific and not meant to be lump into

clip or mag

bullet or cartridge

very specific and firearm specific (Not general terms) I would like it left separate.

Those are not the same discussion.

And the topic of the thread that yours was merged into was: Correct Terminology.

Your thread was not specific, as you stated. It was the same discussion. It met the criteria of being a duplicate topic. Should it have simply been closed instead of merged?

Now that's just my opinion. Try PMing one of the mods in General to see what they say... Like Bud, maybe?
