Another fact; the Supreme Court ruled that severe restrictions on “sawed off” shotguns were constitutional because they weren’t militia weapons.

I sure am glad to hear that!

I never said it was a correct decision, but it is true. Look up United States v. Miller. Here’s one of the goverments arguments in support of the law (National Firearms Act of 1934):

3.The Second Amendment protects only the ownership of military-type weapons appropriate for use in an organized militia.

Now they argue you shouldn’t own an AR 15 because it is desgned to be used in the militia!
