1. A shotgun having a barrel or barrels of less than 18 inches in length;
2. A weapon made from a shotgun if such weapon as modified has an overall length of less than 26 inches or a barrel or barrels of less than 18 inches in length;
3. A rifle having a barrel or barrels of less than 16 inches in length;
4. A weapon made from a rifle if such weapon as modified has an overall length of less than 26 inches or a barrel or barrels of less than 16 inches in length;
5. Any other weapon, as defined in subsection (e);
6. A machinegun;
7. Any silencer (as defined in section 921 of title 18, United States Code); and
8. A destructive device.

If the militia is a military unit and the Federalist Papers says a militia is a military unit, then the militia needs access to #6 and #8 if it wants to face a modern adversary.

One of the biggest threats to the Constitution according to Hamilton and Madison is the US Army. How is a modern militia supposed to fight the US Army without full auto weapons and things like hand grenades?

Why wouldn't the militia need access to all of them ?
