Don't approve of your gun series on a site that children might use

This looks historic. Children are allowed to see images of weapon.

Why can't you just say you disagree? And that's not just directed to marina, but to everyone who makes up excuses to argue with those who don't like having weaponry images on here. Especially when, like Bevy, they don't get aggressive in how they state their disapproval or embellish excuses they shouldn't be allowed. For that matter, what children are "allowed" to see varies by family, country, community and culture.
Because no, it doesn't look historic. It looks like any revolver drawn in low-res terms. And almost none of these smaller puzzles can create a remotely recognizable historical weapon. You could put the name "Turkish Jeweled Ceremonial Rifle" on a puzzle title, and in a 20x20 puzzle, at best it'll look like a fake wooden toy rifle from the 1950s.

The concept of censorship is generally not a popular one; even people who do like it rarely admit it publicly.
But it bears repeating that objection, dissent, disapproval or even discussions of filtering for age appropriateness; none of those things IS an attempt at censorship. It's expressing a viewpoint, one you are obviously free to disagree with.
Yes, I've seen people really call for censoring of weapons and the like on the site. But I've seen A LOT more people express their disapproval and then be treated like they're calling for censorship. I've seen WAY more knee-jerk reactions to the dissenters than I've even seen dissenters. In fact, it's getting comical how many people think an "Uh oh, here come the angry pacifists" comment is defending free speech.

Even when my language is as conciliatory AF, people sometimes think I am trying to shame when I'm just correcting bad info - it's something I'm always working on. The only time I LET myself "shame" is when someone is being blatantly bigoted, malicious, nasty, etc. I try to avoid being passive aggressive by allowing myself to be actively aggressive when it's deserved. And yes, I'm a big supporter of accountability in all public spaces.
But what it boils down to is; most people on this website find ways to disagree with someone, without implying they were wrong to say anything in the first place. But when things go the other way, they often go WAY the hell the other way.
We need to leave room for disagreement, even debate. We need to treat disapproval as an opinion and not as a call to abolish. And while some opinions should be supported with facts (like tall people are smarter than short people), if you don't have one to support your opinion, don't make one up. You can just like a puzzle others don't.

I would not go so far as to ban subjects, however; weapons, tobacco, and other adult subjects should be marked as such. I understand that capability was not available with some of the older puzzles but it is now and should be applied.

I enjoyed this one. And I have no problem whatsoever with my kids seeing using and possessing weapons. My only concern is how expensive it is to practice. They must learn to use them and use them well.
