For example, if you believe people living in a capitalist society should be allowed to own firearms for self defense, would that change for you under AES? Why?

Under the dictatorship of the proletariat firearms would have to be restricted so that reactionaries could not access them. As the transition to communism progressed there would eventually be a point where weapons wouldn't need to be controlled. Under capitalism gun control, like all laws of the bourgeois dictatorship, will only be used to maintain the supremacy of the bourgeois class.
