Guns have unlimited ammo
If for some insane reason you're firearm happens to run out of ammunition just grab the gun of the nearest badguy you dispatched. His remaining ammo will easily fit your gun no matter what.

Someone has been watching movie pitches! And rightfully so, those things are amazing.
Yeah, yeah, Yeah! Pitch Meetings by Ryan George are Tight!
Years later and pitch meeting is still hilarious

As long as a bullet is removed quickly, the person who got shot will suffer very little damage and regain full mobility quickly
How often do we see someone get shot in the shoulder and go on acting like they weren't shot at all. Or that someone is on death's door after getting shot in the stomach, only to come back for the final act just hours later like they hadn't been shot at all.
Actually while we're on the topic of bullets, more so any medium with characters with super powers or some sort of special abilities:
Characters with powers can easily dodge, block or deflect bullets, but somehow arrows, hand thrown objects or running up and using melee combat is somehow too hard to overcome.
Not sure if this is the most egregious example of it, but damn it I remember this happening all the time to Sylar from the show Heroes. One of just many examples is here Sylar easily stops gunshots from a opponent trying to shoot him with his back turned. However two other characters can literally walk up to him and take him out with a parking meter and a katana.

Though I guess to be fair, Sylar seemingly forgot how to catch bullets after acquiring regeneration.
Writing for that show is just so damn sloppy.
Another example of this trope is Spiderman. He dodges gun fire a ton of times, Yet you can literally make a drinking game out of how many times characters can just pick up an object and smash it over Peter's head.
This is why I have more respect for martial arts characters or martial arts based like say Star Wars characters because at least their skills are more consistent.
EDIT: Scenes from these reminds me of that scene from Robin Men in Tights where Fryer Tuck who's blind can catch an arrow, then immediately thinks a armless stature of a woman is Robin Hood.
