Parker-Hale IDW vs Bushman IDW

Posted under Tags

Parker-hale_idw and bushman_idw. At present, the only posts these are making appearances in are with regards to IDW_(Girls'_Frontline). I know too little of guns to debate which ought to be which, but the fact is that only one of them ought to be being tagged for the character- unless one is a variant of the other or something. Even then, is it absolutely necessary to give the variant it's own tag at the moment?

Would a gun aficionado mind weighing in? Combined, there's about 62 posts tagging the guns.

I wouldn't call myself a 'gun aficionado' personally, since I don't collect. I just have a handgun for EDC (every day carry), but I do watch a large amount of firearm videos on YouTube. What I think we need here is not an expert on firearms, but rather someone well-versed in Girls' Frontline to chime in.Someone like that is going to be more knowledgeable on why there's a distinction in the first place, otherwise I think this would've been folded into a singular tag by now. Which I think is perhaps evidence that the two tags should be left alone.

EDIT: Grammar.

EDIT2: Sorry, I skimmed the post too much. It's a PDW from Parker-Hale, a British manufacturer of firearms and firearm furniture. 'Bushman' was a company Parker-Hale worked with to produce prototypes of the gun. I'm not sure if there is any visual differences to be found here? Parker-Hale wasn't a company known for producing large quantities of firearms AFAIK. Personally I either axe the bushman_idw tag or alias it to parker-hale_idw since Parker-Hale is where the idea for the gun originates, or axe the both of 'em if felt necessary. Seems needless to have the two with those post counts.
