In order to make sense of what a well regulated militia means, you have to read Constitutional case law, as the Constitution exists only in the context of that case law, whether you like it or not, whether you agree with it or not.
Case law IS CLEAR. The 2nd Amendment conveys a personal right to keep and bear arms irregardless of ones status in or out of a Militia. It is further clear that the weapons protected by the 2nd must be of use to the military. Semi automatics can not be banned or restricted simply because they look scary. In fact the 1994 assault weapons ban was itself unconstitutional, just no one took it to court, afraid of what the decision would be.
Case law is clear bans on magazines in use or of use to the military are unconstitutional. But until someone with standing takes that to court it will stand. Bans on semi automatics is also unconstitutional.
You keep reminding us that Case law is preeminent and I keep reminding you it is clear on the current attempts to ban or restrict weapons and magazines.
