Sean Penn has revealed that he doesn't miss his gun collection anymore.

During his annual pre-Golden Globes gala for J/P HRO, the actor revealed that his girlfriend Charlize Theron convinced him to have his collection of nearly 65 firearms turned into a sculpture by artist Jeff Koons and then auctioned off for the Haiti relief organization, E!Online reported.

He said that he thinks that guns are not something to be missed and especially on a serious note, when people we talk about it this week amidst the tragedy that happened in Paris, he would like to see more guns go to sculpture.

Penn added that he would like to see a gunless society in the future.
