M4/M203
AfDs for this article: 
 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

This article should not be here on Wikipedia as the M4 and the M203 are seperate weapons that can be attached to eachother (ie. M203 can be attached to M4). They have never been one and the same system, they can merely be integrated together. -- Nohomers48 (talk) 08:58, 3 April 2009 (UTC) 
 * Keep If they can be "integrated together" it would appear than an article on that is certainly reasonable. The article is a stub which might go to AfD, but the reasoning given here is likely insufficient.  More likely it would be deletable for having insufficient sources.

 * Wrong forum, WP:AFD. ViperSnake151 Talk  14:39, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Note: Moved to AFD from Miscellany for deletion. Article re-tagged and creator and nominator notified. –Black Falcon (Talk) 18:09, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. M4 carbine has an Accessories section, the subject should be dealt with there, instead of needlessly proliferating stubs. Rd232 talk 19:09, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - the M203 is an accessory for attachment to various main weapons. There is no need for this specific combination. -- Whpq (talk) 16:59, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks,  MBisanz  talk 07:53, 8 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Weak Keep - This is hard one. Why combo is already covered in M4 article, it seems to be being used more and more in the various wars(Iraq, etc). I think if it is referenced properly, it should be notable for own article. This is just my humble opinion.JimmySmitts (talk) 09:14, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Redirect to M4 carbine, since the combination is already covered there. Rklear (talk) 14:17, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
