The Framers have addressed your question, at least implicitly. Article I, section 8, clause 11 authorizes congress to issue "Letters of Marque and Reprisal". At the time of the founding, these were warrants authorizing private citizens to take action against enemy nations.

No response Grania?

To tell you the truth Grania, I was floored by your posts on this. I thought you really were a conservative.

I am a conservative. I don’t like guns, but respect the Constitutional right to have guns. Anything about the extent of the right to bear arms is new information to me.
