I have recently had an argument with a kid at school about whether we would kill animals and there would be guns if there was no sin and the devil didn't exist.

No.
When the devil is bound in the abyss. The lion even sleeps with the lamb. Cats eat grass again.
We eat of the fruit of the earth.

This question was not asked to fuel a discussion on whether or not the devil is real. My opinion on this question would be that yes we would still have guns. Without the devil and sin we would still have the need to eat. Since meat is a natural food for humans and firearms are the most efficient way to harvest wild animals then we would still have them.
Humans have been hunting since the beginning of time. Being that we are very inventive creatures, we constantly seek better methods of doing things. I think that this being so, humans would have invented the gun strictly as a hunting tool even without the presence of sin or the devil

I don't really think the devil has anything to do with sinning, people have free will and choose what their actions are. I think guns are stupid anyway, we should fight wars with swords, that would make things much more interesting. I don't think there could be such a would without sins, it's an unstoppable force. Trust me, there are a lot more ways to kill people then with guns.

Well, since sin doesn't really exist, I think having a gun wouldn't be any less dangerous than it is now (considering we don't have sin now). Its called human nature. Its the way we are raised to control dangerous weapons and some people weren't taught right. Yes, there would be some stupid kids killing animals, but not because of sin (or the lack of it).

If there were no devil and no sin then it would not matter if there were guns. The manner in which you killed animals for food wouldn't matter much either.

Well considering there is no devil, and sin is a primitive concept, and guns do in fact exist, the answer is yes.

There is no DEVIL. Yes, people would still kill animals even if there was one and now it no longer exists. If you are not a vegetarian you would still eat meat to survive.

without sin, there would be no death. Killing would not be part of the vocabulary..... Kinda a different type of world, don't you think? so, there would be no guns - unless someone creates them for target practice, i guess....
god bless

Obviously, since there is no devil already, and we do have guns, the answer is yes.
