Question It is claimed to be a German abbreviation, of more general applicability. Is the term used in Germany?DGG 00:35, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Answer Somewhat. I for one have never heard it, read it or used it. But it is quite plausible that this exists. --Ouro (blah blah) 18:59, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per seems like an adjective. could be a blip on machine gun. the_undertow ^talk 02:05, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete based on a distinct lack of both sources and German Google hits. The Meroka CIWS exists (though I' can't tell why the Spanish gave their weapon a German name), but "Meroka machine guns" seem to be unknown. --Huon 14:53, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete for lack of sources to verify that this term has widespread use. Delete both this article and Meroka gun, which it redirects to. -FisherQueen (Talk) 18:39, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
