Original Note:
The phrase “well-regulated” was in common use long before 1789, and remained so for a century thereafter. It referred to the property of something being in proper working order. Something that was well-regulated was calibrated correctly, functioning as expected. https://bearingarms.com/bobowens-bearingarms/2014/06/24/well-regulated-n19250
