Considering there was a rather sizable force here in Eorzea and we're all running around using all manner of "inferior" weaponry compared to their tech and even their mech suits, we were capable of standing against them without. Sure, the Warrior of Light + allies managed to commandeer one of them, but I'm referring to the basic, rank and file soldier that was fighting while the Warrior of Light was doing his heroism. If the basic rank and file soldier stood something of a chance, which they clearly did when looking at the Battle at Cartenau and then throughout all the other battles to come, then there's got to be some manner of defense implied against guns, otherwise it'd just be instant auto-kill shots.
As has been stated before, the rank and file of the Garlean Empire does not have guns. It's reserved for what appears to be their officers and higher. Twin Adder Mook #295 doesn't have to deal with Garlean Mook #918 shooting him, he has to deal with that mook coming at him with a sword.
