Nonsense. A gun can be used to procure food, to target shoot, for trophy hunting, as a threat, etc.
With a bit of ingenuity, there is nothing that has only one use value. This why I sometimes use books to prop up a table, or a handy shoe to bang in a nail.
I do agree about the fetishism, thought. There are plenty of people who own objects out of some sort of emotional or status value beyond that object's utility.
