Forum:Spined Gillman & Mermaid Archer

I don't see this in the rulings. If Mermaid Archer use its effect and equip Spined Gillman to itself, will Spined Gillman's effect still be valid?

Instead of getting 2000 attack normally, would Mermaid Archer get 2400 attack total instead? I'm not sure how monster with effects that becomes equip card works out in the game mechanics.

Another question is that if I use Koa'ki Meiru War Arms's effect and equip Armor Breaker from graveyard to him, would Armor Breaker be treated as an equip card with no effect? Or will the monster keep its Union monster property so I can just un-equip off Koa'ki Meiru War Arms? I would get a free monster to use each turn this way for this scenario correct?
