The whole "Cap never used a gun even in WWII" idea in the comics (which has thankfully never really caught on) is such idiocy and is a total misunderstanding of the whole reason superheroes tend not to use guns. They tend not to use guns because they have less-lethal alternatives and they're mostly vigilantes and therefore killing criminals is not such a good idea for them to do. Catch supervillains because the cops can't? Hold supervillains because the jails can't? Yes, but killing them is too much like forgoing the trial and skipping to execution.

This does not apply when you're a soldier fighting Nazis in World War II. At all.

In fact, if you're a soldier in World War II fighting Nazis and you don't use a gun to kill them, I automatically respect you less.

Yeah, I have to agree with you. Not killing people is kind of what sets them apart from the villains. ON the other hand, if they're fighting a huge non-sapient robot and a gun works against it I can see Steve pull out a gun.

And pretty much straight agree with the WW2 thing. On top of all that, it was kill or be killed and I think Steve cared more about keeping himself and his men alive than mass murderers.
