For example, I think the sections should still be listed by the gun name rather than the vehicle (we are a weapons, not a vehicle database, and just throwing up a "Northrop F-5 Freedom Fighter" entry with no information about what weapon it carries, if any, provides nothing).

This leads on to a bigger discussion, of if we are going to allow listing of gun/weapons platforms, should we make a page for them? If for no other reason than as a place to store a bit of information and pictured so that they can be found by other users, rather than uploading multiple images of the same weapon.

BTW, I have a bunch of photos I took at the 1st Cav and 4th ID museums in Fort Hood. I can upload them for users to use, rather than scouring for images across the internet.
