I really do not think that you have studied this truthfully or completely. You have to look at the time frame Everyone had guns to hunt and to protect themselves it was a given. After Shay's rebellion the government knew that it couldn't respond quick enough, they wanted to keep a small Army. The emphasis was on having a regulated Militia.
