Moominpappa also has a rifle in the 1990 series. Kind of interesting how that would not really appear in a kids show in the US nowadays, but back then it was just normal.

Also kind of weird how uptight about we are in the US now. If it was something just as deadly but themed differently like a magic wand or sci fi ray gun, nobody would bat an eye. I get the politics of it due to school shootings and the like, but it’s still normal everyday life for large swaths of the US to have rifles at home that the parents use for self defense.
