You are confused Moon Bat
The fucking military is the fucking government and the fucking government will be oppressive any time they can get away with it.
They restrict firearms on bases because, being the fucking government, they can get away with it because of the UCMJ. However, it is just as much a violation of the Constitution as doing it to civilians.
Just imagine George Washington telling his troops at Valley Forge that he didn't trust them to keep privately own weapons.
You are an idiot and you always post idiotic things. Typical uneducated Moon Bat.
Actually, most who fought in the War of Independence on behalf of the Colonies leaving English rule, the Continental Revolutionaries, used their own, personal weapons. Easier to do when firearms were muzzle loading and all you needed was powder and balls, most muskets have the same size bores. A little more complicated in present where most firearms require cartridges of various size/diameter.
Also, many had used those same muskets several years earlier in the French and Indian War, and also used them for hunting and personal/home defense. Sometimes against Indian uprisings and occasional criminals.
During this time most communities had the men as members in the local militia and many and laws requiring adult males own a firearm to be part of the militia.
The term "well regulated" refers to the fact that a large group of men armed with muskets would usually form up in 3 or 4 ranks where the "1st' rank facing and enemy formation would aim and fire, then move through the ranks behind to form the last rank while they reloaded. The second rank then becoming the "first" rank which would then aim and fire, then it would move through and back to last rank to reload. And so on. This was a common drill for a group to fire and reload in a well trained or well regulated manner. On a battlefield that is.
If fighting as "irregulars", say sniping and pot-shotting from cover of the trees, then things, tactics, were a bit less "well regulated" since there was no formation.
