There are so many things that you can land on land that will absolutely ruin your day when going for land. A large boulder, a large tree, a cliffside, a building, something flammable, near an angry hungry bear… The open sea is seen as safer in the American school of thought.

Russians would actually send their cosmonauts to space with a gun in case they encountered a bear before rescue while in the wilderness.

  I just had to look this up and it did not disappoint. It was apparently a triple barrel gun with a machete for a stock and only went out of service in 2006.
