Is there a reason why you need to bring a pistol to the moon?
Not really. Weight is a premium when landing on the moon, and they would not add a single pound for something unnecessary like a gun, or pistol. Now, when Russian Cosmonauts go into space, they do carry a pistol in their space capsule. Not for anything they might encounter in space, but for their return to Earth. Russian Soyuz space capsules land on the vast Russian plains. Sometimes it may take several hours--even days for their recovery teams to reach the cosmonauts. During this time, the Cosmonauts must survive wherever they land and a handgun can be useful.
