There might be a spell for inactivating guns and/or destroying them.
It's odd that wizards are immune to flame (couldn't be burnt as witches) and yet they're so vulnerable to impact.
It would be interesting to throw a Spell of Coherent World-Building.
They didn't have an always-on immunity to flame, they cast a Flame-Freezing Charm. Deadly impact is usually too sudden to prepare against, whereas you can see them building the fire minutes in advance.
