Thor ran from Vulcan bullets. Asgardian Armor is bulletproof to a point. Asgardians as far as we know are not.I don't see what the exploding arrow has to do with being bulletproof, but people survive explosions like jumping on grenades or landmines or IED's far more than you'd think. But the guy that survived that explosion more than likely wouldn't survive having half an M4 clip emptied into his chest.
Thor took one full strength blast to the chest plate. Another blast when Tony was boosted to 400%, and then the one where he got "shot in the face" seemed to be a much weaker beam probably due to Thor crushing the shit out of the gauntlet. It was more like a flare than anything. But I don't see what that has to do with anything as Thor is the most powerful Asgardian save Odin. It's clear he's levels above everyone else in every way.
You are straw-manning here. There is far more evidence of Asgardians tanking earthly artillery unscathed than there is of them getting hurt by them. You have zero proof of them being hurt by bullets whereas they have survived bullets before. You claim it's their armor but you have no proof that ONLY the armor was hit. IE, shotgun round made a clang against Sif's armor but you have no proof that she wasn't hit elsewhere. Rapid fire made a clang against Loki's chest but it would be dumb to think that out of all of those shots none hit him in other parts without armor.
A grenade will tear up a person regardless of whether he survives or not. To claim that Loki can survive an exploding arrow to the face without a scratch yet be vulnerable to gunshot is baseless.
And if you keep going this direction, then we can also simply say that Juggernaut is also susceptible to gunfire because, you know, he has never shown he can tank gunshots.
