If you have another craft set to team A that you want your turret to shoot at once you turn guard mode on, the turret won't shoot it. If you set one of the crafts to team B, however, then the turret will shoot the other craft.
Make sure when you turn guard mode on, you change the FoV to 360 degrees unless you don't want it to have a full field of view, and adjust the range to whatever setting you want. It may take a little while for the turret to start firing at you, but as long as you haven't done anything horribly wrong or you're out of the actual gun's FoV (which is different from the guard mode's FoV setting - it can track your craft from any directon, but if the gun can't physically turn to shoot you, it won't), it will eventually work.

Missiles are a little more complicated, I recommend screwing around with them and the different tracking systems to get a feel for how you're meant to use them. Pay attention to what kind of missile it is: heat-seeking (also the easiest to use), GPS (stationary targets, can be marked by the camera ball), laser (also camera ball), radar, etc.

Feel free to ask for clarification.
