The cover to the novelization of the original Metal Gear removed the gun from Snake's hand. This was probably because the book was published by Scholastic, and they primarily sold books to school children.

I've had this book for 3 months and I'm just noticing it now! I was probably too amazed by the name they gave to Snake...Justin Hailey.
Does anyone else remember the Scholastic book order? That flimsy fold out lightly colored newspaper sheet where you could order Batman coloring books? Those were cool! And now we have Amazon.
