    | "I would say the equivalent to a militia unit of the 1770s would be today’s National Guard." 
 And, you would be wrong!!
 
 The 2nd Amendment guarantees the right of the PEOPLE, not the right of the militia!

                      | For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution.
