If you take the time to read some of the Founding Fathers writings of the time, you will find that protecting oneself from a "tyrannical government" (ring any bells?)was foremost in their thinking. If the common man ever has to has to face this, it would make since to me. I believe in 1776, a farmer protecting his property with a musket would have the same firepower as a soldier.
