Yeah, I don't see a strong distinction. Seems like The Same But More Specific.
Found a Youtube Channel with political stances you want to share? Hop on over to this page and add them.While I agree on the lack of distinction between the two, I actually think this one have a better name & description. Plus the other doesn't seem to have YKTTW despite having more examples, wicks and inbounds.

It's a very old article, especially since it was called Shur Fine Guns once upon a time and then get renamed back in 2011 at the latest, it seems.
Merge the two.
Found a Youtube Channel with political stances you want to share? Hop on over to this page and add them.Alright, this has sat idle for another month. I took a look at the two pages and I'm not really seeing how these can be merged. Convenient Misfire is essentially Murphy's Law as it relates to misfires, while Reliably Unreliable Guns is about specific malfunctions, specifically "discharges when dropped/bumped/breathed on/etc." and "if the gun jams, it's useless". The examples on the former trope are fitting for its definition; why should it be cut?
Re-clocking.

Has the same meaning as Reliably Unreliable Guns. Don't see any difference in the descriptions in terms of the meaning. This trope could be redefined as either a Plot Device or something like Deus ex Machina (although I don't like adding another snowclone of that).
