Your analysis of the differences between guns and swords is spot-on. The actual, historical samurai made exactly the same analysis.
Which is why the actual rebel samurai during the Satsuma Rebellion were "armed with Enfield and Model 1857 Six Line (Russian) muzzle loading rifles and could fire approximately one round per minute. Their artillery consisted of 28 mountain guns, two field guns, and 30 assorted mortars." Wikipedia, Satsuma Rebellion. This film had a great soundtrack, abysmal story.
It is not the weapon that constitutes whether one is honourable. It is in its use. Someone who uses a gun to defend themselves, their loved ones, and innocent lives is just as honourable as one who uses a sword for the same purpose. If one uses his skill with a sword to oppress and take advantage of others, he is as dishonourable as one who does the same with a gun.
God Call of Duty is SO GAY. They make a fancy trailer and lure in tons of kids to buy their games when it is the same shit over and over and over and over and over.. AGAIN.
True true! But I think sword fights are more pretty in an artistic sense and also can be more emotional in film! As well as martial arts. I guess swords and martial arts need more passion than guns?

Well then, using your logic, using bows and arrows is cowardly. While using a bow does require a certain skill, weapons that were simple to use and have a simple peasant be skilled in in a few months have existed for centuries. Crossbows, for example, even spears can be counted as cowardly, because your enemy is several feet away from you.
