There is real disagreement over the reason the right to bear arms was enshrined in the constitution. You can't handwave away that detail. :) Some think it recognizes a pre-existing human right and cannot be taken away. Some think it's there to deter/overcome tyrannical government. Some think it's a right of self-defense. Still others think it's there to accommodate the forming of militias, which arguably with the National Guard and a standing army has become an obsolete reason.
