All or most cops have guns in Australia for what it's worth. That they're not used as often is likely due to training and the likelihood that the person you're arresting won't have one though.

I personally think that police mentality matters a lot more than anything else. German police departments for example still have a lot of shame over their extensive involvement in the Holocaust, which affects how they see themselves and how they behave today. Doesn’t mean they’re perfect, but it’s a huge factor that changes police behavior from one country to the next.
