Hey Poland, you want to make sure Russia won't take over the country without spending a penny? Here's a tip: half the Poles would be, like, fuck yeah I'll shoot me some ruskies if I'll see them marching trough my backyard.
All you need to do is to un-gay the gun laws. Amend the constitution to make gun ownership an inherit right, not a fuckin' privilege and there you have it! You'll even make money on taxing gun sales. Just saying

Small firearms sadly won't stop tanks, UAVs and glider bombs — to stop an army you need one too, not a militia 🤷

There is always someone willing to put up a fight — how strong and self-conscious you are as a nation and how hostile you are to the invading one is a way more significant factor IMO than ready-access to firearms.
Even Afghanistan wasn't originally that trigger-happy hell it is today — it got there very gradually, the US and USSR were supporting different groups, which were nothing like Taliban of today and even resembled political parties at the time.
