"Unlockable" vs. "Craftable" weapons.

I've noticed that many community-submitted weapons are referred to as "Unlockable." In my mind, unlockable weapons are those which you receive by unlocking milestone achievements, whereas those which can only be received by crafting are "Craftable" weapons. I think these terms are more specific, giving the reader more detail as to how they may be obtained, while still using only one word. --Shackanaw 18:58, 12 July 2010 (UTC)

Which pages are you referring to? The Weapons page lists them as "Drop" --Firestorm 19:01, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
I'd be tempted to call them community weapons but community weapons refers to something else. Contribute Items maybe? -- Nineaxis Duck Gib.png 19:03, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
I should clarify: my issue isn't with the fact that they are community weapons, but that they are only obtainable through the crafting system. Therefore, I also think the Gunboats should be referred to as "craftable." The specific pages I have seen this on, or at least, those that I can recall off the top of my head, are the Southern Hospitality and Tribalman's Shiv. --Shackanaw 19:29, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
