Harriet Tubman carried a small pistol with her on her rescue missions, although mostly for protection from slave catchers, but also to encourage some weak-hearted runaways from turning back and risking the safety of the rest of the group. Tubman also carried a sharpshooter's rifle during the Civil War.
