Are guns promoted as "for killing people"?

For handguns, certainly: they have no other (primary) purpose except to kill people. Secondary purposed involve the *threat* of killing people, or *practice* for that act.

As Lynyrd Skynyrd notes:

[They] ain't good for nothin
But put a man six feet in a hole
