Perhaps the part that states “well regulated”?

“Perhaps the part that states “well regulated”?”

You are mis interpreting the use of “well regulated.” It is not a reference to “regulation.” That phrase meant that the weapons were “in good working order” or were “properly calibrated.” This phrase was used by the framers to ensure that the government could NOT do precisely what your interpretation says. It was to prevent the government to encumber our ability to carry arms with conditional requirements.
