I would suggest to reassemble the gunsmiths from things subsection into their own.
MIA are:
Bartolomeo Beretta & decendants
Mikhail Klashnikov
Sergei Gavrilovich Simonov
Igor Stechkin
Franz Andreas Mauser
Peter Paul Mauser
Wilhelm Mauser
brothers Émile & Léon Nagant
Eliphalet Remington
Philo Remington (also a typewriter designer)
just to name few

Great idea. Is there a good list of gunsmiths online to give me some guidance? Alternatively I'm open to you and others editing the introductory page yourselves to include new categories like gunsmiths. Say the word and I'll add you as a collaborator on the project and you can help with the main page and in linking in profiles.

Yes please add them to the project but also please add a section on the main page as an index and guide to who they are and what cars are named after them.

Perhaps a Transportation section would work ok as a suggestion.

Gottlieb Daimler, Reitwagen, 1885 looks like there is a family tree for the machines, all privat. Motorcycle with suport wheels is the son of the Draisine - (motor)cycle on rails.

I've added sections on our index page for autos, guns etc. Where I need the most help with the project is in actually locating gen.com profiles for these people. If you know they have profiles on the site please let me know or better yet just add them to our project description page by editing it yourself :)
