But again, as the quote that Strange posted earlier states... what difference does that make? The militia was a citizens' army, not a national one. They are one in the same for this purpose. A militia is not a standing national army.

No but the Army Reserve and National Guard apply.
If you want a handgun permit or own a handgun, you have to be active in the National Guard or Army Reserve.
Rifles would be different. As long as you have a license and permit you can own one. However, you need to be registered and up to date on rifle safety/shooting classes at least once a year.
