well regulated in 18th century English ment...I believe... using the same size bullet for supply issues...trained in accurate shooting etc...am I wrong
I always thought that "well-regulated" as applied to a technological device meant "synchronized." Regarding guns, a double-barreled shotgun is "well-regulated" if the shot patterns from both barrels impact the same point at some specified range. Regarding the militia, "well regulated" means "well trained" or "well organized."
It sure as $hit doesn't mean that you have to get the permission of some constipated dolt whose son is on drugs, whose daughter is a ho, and whose wife beats him regularly, and who also happens to work for the government approving firearms applications.
