So how does one clan prevent citizens from using weapons against them once it’s over?
They don't need to. Jail time for illegal gun is very high in Russia/Belarus/Kazakhstan, so that guns will be returned fast. In any case it is not enough guns to do something really harmful. And you, obviously, need ammo for guns. Ammo is highly regulated too, and there is a jail penalty even for owning single shell without license. Shells often used by police to press/racket people, they plant a shell to your pocket, "find" it and then treaten to throw you to jail.
Will see, what's really going on, if everything will be finished in few days without any real changes in political system, that will mean that it was just internal power shift.

Is this what the RATM pocket full of shells song is about?
