The only trick I know of is to make your Object style and name it "Place Gun Frame". It is the only one that will default to a new image place command.

Isn't it like all other ID presets — if you select an Object Style with no document or element selected, it will become the default for all new objects?

A quick test of it seems to work that way, allowing for the Text/Graphics dichotomy.

I mean in the open document.

The technique works the same whether you have a doc open or not, and other than that you have to set one for text frames and one for (basically) all other objects, it seems consistent/persistent to me. But it does not persist from doc to doc, at least, not if the style is not defined in the second doc.

Hi Robert, I'm not sure what you mean in this question. Could you expand on the description please?

From what I remember - people were complaining, that when they were creating TFs or shapes - active / selected ObjectStyle wasn't applied - but rather default ones, 2nd and 3rd.
