Original Note:
The claim that the Second Amendment only applies to muskets is historically inaccurate. The 2n Amendment protects the right to bear arms generally, not limited to 18th-century weapons. The Supreme Court in District of Columbia v. Heller affirmed that it includes modern firearms https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/second_amendment
