[QUOTE="Werewolf, post: 1182469, member: 239"] Now... But in 1783 it meant well equipped and trained when refering to a militia. Thus since militia troops were expected to supply their own arms it makes perfect sense in that context to use "a well regulated milita, being necessary to the security of a free state" as a lead in to the not be infringed part. If the people couldn't keep and bear arms how in the heck could they have been expected to supply their own weapons when required to serve in the militia. [/QUOTE]
