Not necessarily, There does seem to be some who know (or atleast knew) How to do summoning's. Prime example is Ran'jits family line, Their serpents (Huracan and Gukumatz) are essentially egis just through a different technique we dont know about other than they are made from their blood so at least on the first summoning is a thing. But yes the first technologically didn't have a reason to make gunblades so none really exist, though one could argue that mana triggers are the firsts equivalent to gunblades. Also i don't think the ink mages come from the first since elidibus was able to pull wills from across space and time so they could come from different shards than the source and first.
