Could you quote the source?
If I remember correctly, it's an enchantment mentioned in an adventure path book or something. It's buried somewhere on the Pathfinder SRD, but there's no easy direct route to it, as they only show the stuff listed in the Core and APG, not the oddballs found in non-rule but still paizo Pathfinder books. There's a similar one that does the same thing for Dexterity, making for more powerful rogues (not to mention making Weapon Finesse almost superfluous).

I think there was quite a bit of forum chatter while back debating if guided weapon can even be used on a ranged weapon. Nothing states it can't from the magic property write-up, but there's lots of hints it probably should be melee-only: mentioning replacing Strength for attack and damage and two-handed users not applying 1.5 Wis and "normal weapon" use is with Strength.

The guided property itself says attack and damage rolls. instead of strength. So if you could apply it, how I'm reading it, you get both mDex and mWis to damage.

Firearms don't use a strength bonus to begin with, so it doesn't get replaced with a wisdom bonus.

A +1 enhancement that allows you to add two stats to your damage? You should know that is most certainly not Rules as Intended. I'd bet money that if this ability were to be put on the actual magic item qualities list, you'd see it listed only under melee.
A character who attacks with a guided weapon modifies his attack rolls and weapon damage rolls with his Wisdom modifier, not his Strength modifier.
Emphasis mine. The enchant uses your Wisdom mod INSTEAD of your Strength mod.
