They have several episode's later on involving Kelso in the Police Academy and handguns, one of which is annoying (Kelso and his female cop in training buddy take Fez to the range) and the rest are Kelso, the <insert Red Formans favorite insult here>, doing something stupid, which isn't anti gun as much as character appropriate.

I've never been a fan of the way firearms are treated in HIMYM. It's the same annoying theme as That 70's Show episode. Hot chick with big guns being tough, ditzy and bloodthirsty.
Well HIMYM certainly aren't gun people for sure, but they manage to avoid beig strictly anti, which is basically a win in modern media. It's a goofy stereotype for sure. But Robin is a gun owner and not a pariah or a "bad guy."
