Yep. Was a fucking long time ago. Dont see how that relates to your current need for small arms.

Also, the need for weapons in everyday life had as much to do with being a frontier nation as with the revolution

Incidentally Urbane, Up until very recently the concept of militia was a strong part of the English consciousness. We held to a militia system for over a thousand years. It was the duty for every freeborn man to hold arms throughout the saxon and medieval period.
