Has this come up again? I remember about a year ago, when the detective was still in sec, they were almost like a HoS-lite when some players played them. What with the thermals and usually being loaded up with sec gear, they were definitely above a regular guard and a lot of times would be super serious and overzealous (maybe these were people who wanted to be HoS, or had not been accepted as Hos).
Once the office got moved to disposals and thermals were made useless, detective has been more of a fun gimmick role, like chaplain, but still with some security duties. I remember when I first joined and played detective, I did exactly what you described and got yelled at by the whole crew and forced to turn in my gun, which I did (I was pretty embarrassed!).
If people are doing this now, just be sure to remind them that their gun is not a toy and they can't go around shooting people, and then just give 'em the ol' job ban. We just had a bunch of new forensics updates so it's probably not fair to be asking for more detective stuff at this point in time. Or at least I don't have any innovative ideas.
