In some posts, it's the first

I'd still tag both Fabarm FP6 in order to comply with character's canon description. The exact named of the shotgun itself got so much possible variants in real life that made it less distinguishable from any other modern shotguns. I.e. tube length, traditional buttstock, pistol grip presence, etc..
Somehow IMFDb considers the FP6 to be the same firearm model as the SDASS.
Tags for exact pump action shotgun models with a conventional tube mag are quite a mess since most models do look extremely identical to each other (like average generic lever actions, revolvers, or double-barreled shotguns) - and distinct external cues on each model can be potentially, extremely blurred away by lack of artistic details and proportions without any captions on the images themselves or artist commentary to identify.

- The shotgun on 1st image (post #10514165) appears to be based FP6/SDASS with a model with low-profile front sight post albeit with minimal details.
- The 2nd one (post #10144623) appears to based on an FP6/SDASS with holed front sight post.

So it's fabarm fp6 ?
Just wanna make it sure, so that it wouldn't be confusing.

Yes, you're right. Go ahead keep tagging it as such.

Flukan's Kivotos Tactics Manual entry on Haruka says the same thing: post #10341260.

If the FP6 and SDASS are so similar that even IMFDB doesn't bother telling them apart, then we may want to consider combining them into a Fabarm FP6/SDASS tag.
BUR #59156 has been approved by @evazion.
create alias fabarm_fp6 -> fabarm_fp6/sdass
create alias fabarm_sdass -> fabarm_fp6/sdass
As above. If the literal wiki of firearms autists doesn't see the point in keeping these two separate then why should we?
