It really doesn't make much difference if the airlines they work for
don't allow guns in the cockpit.

The airlines have too. This article was not terribly accurate (Look at
the source).

There was a time that pilots were required to carry guns (if there was
mail on board). Someone had the common sense to know that people won't
try to steal the mail if they know that the pilots may shoot back. I
guess we've lost that reason because today we assume everyone is too
stupid to own a gun or buy a car, etc and we look to the gov't to
provide our personal security.
