Private bodyguards have the same rights as every other civilian. This means that if a state prohibits people from having firearms, private bodyguards wouldn’t be treated differently.
How then will a private unarmed bodyguard be able to protect a vip in very dangerous parts of town where almost everyone (Edit: a lot of persons) has illegally obtained firearms? Are they trained to disarm people? Or do they just scatter and bail?

You get something called a mobile holster. For example. The bodyguard hires a local National that is allowed to carry a gun and they always stay a few feet from them or the gun is left in the middle of the car. If anything happens they take the gun; service the targets and give the gun back. Obviously this won’t work in a lot of countries, but it works in enough to stayed employed. The biggest thing a bodyguard can do to increase the likelyhood of getting a job is to increase there medical training as an emt, paramedic as well as become proficient in local languages. At the end of the day your not just a shooter and you need to use your skills to avoid those situations. If bullets start flying the bodyguard failed at some point to mitigate threats on the route.
