I feel a huge problem here is that there's no indication of this thing having any impact or importance outside of its base series or any enduring legacy of said concept. A good paragraph devoted to it is basically gameplay tweaks that mean nothing to anyone that hasn't played Gears, and doesn't provide any reasonable grounds to be a standalone article.

 * Merge per nom and WP:MERGEREASON. Better covered in the context of its respective game(s), in a much more efficient, condensed manner. Current article is bloated and drawn out to an insane degree. It would be very easy to cover most in a much more focused paragraph that didn't branch out into these tangents. Sergecross73   msg me  18:38, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

 * Merge with Gears of War: per nom and I don't see a problem of WP:WEIGHT by doing that, since this article is significantly smaller than the main one. I see no reason for this to be a standalone article. Rkieferbaum (talk) 20:36, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Merge the Eurogamer article here is quite impressive, unfortunately that appears to be the only major coverage for the gun, with the other articles being announcements of balance patches or minor coverage. I likely wouldn't have created this article if I had only these sources available so I will have to agree it fails WP:GNG. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 20:56, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Merge per all. Wikipedia is not a WP:GAMEGUIDE. Even with some reception, it provides more coverage and context if we include this as part of the overall reception of the game and series. Shooterwalker (talk) 11:07, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
