Just look at the guns these zealots buy. Big and black. Combine that with the typical racialized sexual insecurities of the white male conservative American, which as a group is becoming more and more incel because no woman in this day and age wants anything to do with them.
You think conservatives are buying big black guns because they're thinking about big black cocks?
Business idea: put white cerakote on big guns to sell to these weirdos, and use phallic sexual marketing tactics with undertones of their stupid replacement theory.
Well my opinion is based on data. There’s a reason why you don’t see these incel shooters buying snub nose revolvers or ultra compacts. And yes, I do think those types of guys spend way more time thinking about what’s in other dude’s pants than is healthy.

Your claim isn't even mentioned in that source. There's nothing there about types of guns. It literally just says that men own more guns than women, especially men with families to protect, and extra especially racist men with families to protect from hypothetical black aggressors. And that's just a long walk to say that weak cowards rely on guns to feel adequate and strong, which I thought was pretty obvious already. But yeah, absolutely nothing about desiring big black guns because they're jealous of big black cocks. I think you might just be projecting a bit, bud.
I'm sure the correlation can be much more attributed to white men tending to have more wealth, paired with consuming media that glorifies the "hero with a gun" trope, who also is usually white. John Wick, Die Hard, 007, Schwarzenegger movies, Rambo, the list goes on. Also, pretty much every AAA video game of the past 20 years is centered around shooting guns.
