Hailey Bieber ‘Nervous’ By Husband Justin’s New ‘Fascination With Firearms’ Amid Erratic Behavior

Justin Bieber has become obsessed with guns and amassing a large collection, and insiders tell the National Enquirer his loved ones led by wife Hailey are worried sick while urging him to find a less scary hobby.

The 31-year-old pop star triggered more alarm bells when he posted photos showing him blasting away with rifles, shotguns and handguns in an open field with a box loaded with ammo beside him.

Shirtless and showing off his muscular tattooed torso, the “Baby” singer sported safety goggles and protective headphones.

“Justin’s started collecting guns and his big new passion is firing them on the practice range or some remote spot in the wilderness,” says an insider. “He’s constantly obsessing over the next guns he’s going to buy and how cool they are, and spends hours polishing the ones he already has.

“He assures people he’s keeping them unloaded in a safe, locked place where no one can get to them, including his son, but that doesn’t comfort them much.”

Meanwhile, those around Justin “don’t think it’s a good idea to be playing with firearms when he’s been acting so erratic,” adds the insider. As the Enquirer reported, Justin’s been posting bizarre messages and photos, and his angry encounters with the paparazzi have also been concerning to friends and raised questions about his mental stability.

Sources say the situation’s taken a toll on his six-year marriage to beauty mogul and model Hailey, 28, mom to their 1-year-old son, Jack.

In June, Justin issued a strange Father’s Day post, writing: “I’m a dad that’s not to be f**ked with.”

He also posted a text exchange with a nameless friend, saying he had ended their “short-lived relationship,” adding, “I will never suppress my emotions for someone. Conflict is a part of relationship. If you don’t like my anger you don’t like me.”

Now, the insider notes that “Hailey is nervous about his fascination with firearms and trying to get him to find something else to entertain himself with, but there’s not much she can do besides keep an eye on him. If she pushes too hard, he sulks and quits talking to her or posts another angry diatribe.”

The insider adds that while “Justin’s a good shot, the problem is he thinks in extremes and makes it the focus of his life.

“It’s not sitting well with people.”
