The point of laws is to address major problems, and the point of Constitutional restrictions is to prevent Legislatures from enacting certain laws even if they're intended to address major problems. If the goal is to protect the ability of States to have militias, then you would allow them to provide for the arming of their citizenry. That might be in conflict with other public policy goals, but every constitutional protection does that.

So, for example, Texas could pass a law that mandated every citizen 18 or older be issues 5 AR-15s and 10000 rounds of ammo, because Texas feels that's what's needed to support a state militia?

There's got to be something wrong about that.
