Back in those times everyone ptetty much had the same tech. The military has night vision, thermal imaging, and many other gadgets citizens wont have (rpgs, tanks, planes, grenades, drones, etc etc) no amount of will or want can overcome such a huge firepower disadvantage. The only chance would be military defectors, but they would need to be able to escape with some equipment. Someone mentioned russia. If they really wanted Afghanistan i am sure they would have no problem taking it.
I am not sure how to prevent this situation. Banning guns may help some , but crazy people will still find a way to do whatever.
What you don't seem to get is that the largest army in the world is the armed United States civilian. so if and when the time comes that we need to defend ourselves from the government we will have rpgs, tanks grenades drones ect ect. because we will have the ability to take them from the government.
