The so-called "Antonov uprising" started in Russia in 1920's, when there was no gun control whatsoever (after the WW1, people had more rifles and pistols and even machine guns they could even handle). Nonetheless, in 1921 the infamous Tukhachevsky ordered Red Army airplains to drop chemical bombs on the "rebels" (who were, actually, simple peasants who did not want to give all their produce to the new Communist government). Virtually all of the rebels died, and the uprising came to nothing. In the USA, the "Branch Davidian" compound of David Koresh, again, had more firearms than one could even imagine; yet, the US government destroyed it in just a few hours with the help of incendiary bombs. Later, during the "Ruby Ridge Standout," the AFT, again, annihilated the rebels without any difficulty despite of the having lots of firearms and amunition.
