A gun fetish, also known as hoplophilia, is sexual arousal related to firearms. The arousal can stem from actual firearms, replicas of firearms, bullets, or images or firearms and firearm violence.
More About Gun Fetish
A fetish for gun play is common in BDSM communities. There are healthy ways to satisfy this paraphilia. Gun-shaped dildos and gun replicas (for penetration) as well as airsoft guns (to shoot a person with) can be bought for safer gun play.
People with a gun fetish can also satisfy their urges by watching videos involving guns or listening to the sound of guns.
As with all fetishes, they are harmless if expressed in healthy, consensual ways. A gun fetishist should seek treatment only if the fetish gets in the way of their daily life or if their fetish pushes them towards dangerous behavior.
