Merger makes sense to me. I think it should be merged.
Yaf 18:04, 16 February 2006 (UTC) Merger doesn't appear to elicit enough support. Keeping pump action shotgun separate is probably the better decision.

Well, the thing is, there are different KINDS of Pump-Action weaponry, such as Pump-Action rifles. - Some Anonymous Fellow 68.164.5.121
I agree with Mr. Anonymous above, there are other weapons in addition to the shotgun that use this kind of action. Also the page about the pump-action shotgun should be about the shotgun itself, and this page should be more specific about the pump-action. I see no point in merging. - BlackCat 13:40, 20 February 2006
I absolutely agree- Pump-action does not imply a shotgun, whereas merging would imply that they are.
Why don't they merge pump-action rifle and pump-action shotgun into this article?
Would you merge Marlin firearms producer page with lever action, just because that is the most famous one? Of course not! There are rifles which use the pump action system as well. - Nathaniel Mikkola —Preceding undated comment was added at 19:06, 18 December 2008 (UTC).
Pump action should probably be the general article, with categories within it for pump action shotguns and pump action rifles. Respectfully, SamBlob 03:07, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
A merger would not make since here. Would you merge bolt-action into rifle, just because this system is used it many of them? This article compliments the others of this sort of series, such as pump action, lever action, and even the old falling block action. It would be detrimental to those just looking for the different ways that a firearm can be reloaded.

In any case, merging the two would be unwise until conflicting data is removed from both articles. "Pump-action shotgun," for instance, says that pump action shotguns are slower than semiautos, while the "pump-action" article contradicts it, saying that pump guns are faster. How about more research--verified--with links from "pump-action" to the different kinds of guns that use them for more in-depth discussion? BHenry1969 ( talk) 01:36, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
Both articles contain similar content, whereas pump-action shotgun only covers shotguns, this article covers all designs. Hence, the former should be merged into the latter. Hayden120 ( talk) 02:40, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
