Bullet was invented in 1847. Second Amendment is from 1789. Thus the second amendment only applies to Muskets.

The military at the time had muskets. Intent of the law is to allow the citizenry to have the firepower to resist and overthrow a tyrannical government thus ensuring consent of the governed. In the spirit of the law the citizenry should have access to any weapon a tyrannical government might employ against them. Time to make fully automatic weapons and tanks available to the public.
