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 /Grönsv 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.

There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:Sidearm which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. —RMCD bot 05:32, 13 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
