Yeah, I was probably more so thinking about the older guns that had bayonets added on because close combat was a very likely possibility for them, due to the lower rate of fire and slower reload time that I mentioned. I realize that, in any battle/war, having a knife of some kind on hand is a good idea, regardless of how good or bad your firearm is.

But yeah, although Mantle was more technologically advanced than the other three kingdoms, it's possible their guns could've had a fairy low rate of fire. They even appeared to be shooting rather slowly in this WoR. I noticed that when I was taking screenshots because I kept wanting to get a screenshot of a Mantle figure firing their gun, and they'd just stand there waving it for a little while and then shoot, then wait a while to shoot again.
