Of course. That was the last thing Hitler wanted - an armed German populace.

Sorry, but I must tell you that you seem to have no idea about Germany under Hitler.
After the 1st world war, different armed civil groups were fighting each other until the mid 20ies (The SA and the SS where just 2 out of many). And under Hitler Germany had probably the biggest percentage of weapons in the population.
When Hitler finally took over, he strongly encouraged being armed and taught even children in the Hitler Jugend (Youth) how to use different weapons from pistols to grenades.
So much for Hitler didn't want an armed population.
