It isn't always the solution, but in this case it is.
Based on the amount of preparation he put in to not only survive but to escape, he was not only not willing to die, but more importantly, is a perfectionist to an extent and afraid of uncontrollable variables. Had concealed weapons been legally allowed in this situation, he may not have even attempted this because there aren't many bigger "uncontrollable variables" than a guy with a gun.
This would not work for someone who was planning on killing everyone then killing himself. It would not work on someone who had not done any planning since they wouldn't think about or even care if other people would fight back. But in this particular situation, it may have been a key deterrent to the situation ever occurring.
