Perhaps there is a charm in MoR. Although in cannon there were arrows killing wizards.
I’m not really concerned about muggle vs wizard, but rather wizard vs wizard. As was mentioned earlier in the story, any spell you can throw out requires them to expend effort to negate. And guns can spit out quit a few ‘spells’ per second as well as from beyond unaided sight range. Even if a shield existed, guns would still be changing things by forcing enemies to keep up that shield at all times.
Plus there’s also the question of IEDs. They pump out enough damage that I doubt any wizard could withstand one. The IRA was active during the time period, and made use of carbombs; it would be unusual if someone like Seamus Finnigan didn’t know about them.
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.

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.
