Who should the lower court have asked to testify on the suitability of the weapon for a state militia?

Wouldn't it be up to the defendant and plaintiff to provide expert witnesses? I would think any number would be suitable - military historians, for example.

"Wouldn't it be up to the defendant and plaintiff to provide expert witnesses? I would think any number would be suitable - military historians, for example."

Would you expect all state militias to equip themselves with the same weapons? As a state, would you accept some military historian telling you what you may have in the way of weaponry?
