Agreed. Guns Are Worthless are more of a setting trope, while this is generally a character or scene trope.
Either way, they're definitely not the same thing.

Cut declined.
I'm bad, and that's good. I will never be good, and that's not bad. There's no one I'd rather be than me.
Re cut: Looking at the page, I can see that there is no overlap at all between the examples on Guns Are Worthless and Never Bring a Gun to a Knife Fight. And I can easily see why, considering that all examples on the latter are about individual fights, whereas the latter is a plot trope about guns not being very effective.
I do not think that this page is a duplicate of Guns Are Worthless, in other words. A subtrope maybe, but not a duplicate.
