Let me see if I understand what you are saying in your post:

A well regulated Militia is necessary to the security of a free state implies that the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed. That is, the right to keep and bear arms is dependent on the government's needs for a well regulated Militia. Would this mean then that the govenment may keep the Militia well regulated by restricting the types of arms one may keep and bear?
