This category doesn't have a good definiiton. Check german wp "Der Begriff ist im Waffenbereich nur unscharf definiert." This is not precily defined. Sanandros (talk) 13:43, 27 October 2018 (UTC)
- Are you proposing that we come up with a good definition, or that we do away with the category? - Themightyquill (talk) 18:02, 27 October 2018 (UTC)
- If there exists a good definition somewhere then I'd accept it but I couldn't find any, so currently I'm for deleting.--Sanandros (talk) 00:49, 28 October 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks, Sanandros. And if we delete, where do the contents go? - Themightyquill (talk) 21:43, 28 October 2018 (UTC)
- In general they should go to rifles, but more moderne "carabines" (like the M4) should go to assault rifles. I read withCategory:Saiga-9 that it is a carabine but it uses a pistol caliber which would make it a submachien gun. But the Saiga-9 is not a fully automatic weapon so it is also not a submachine gun, eventually we then just categories it generally as firearm.--Sanandros (talk) 22:57, 28 October 2018 (UTC)
