Much as the militia, as clarified by SCOTUS precedent not long after the Civil War, refers to all men of fighting age. A rather key bit of that decision here; It is undoubtedly true that all citizens capable of bearing arms constitute the reserved military force or reserve militia of the United States as well as of the States. Even if that were not the case the Heller decision definitively stated that being part of a militia is not necessary to exercise your 2A rights. Both of these points of debate have been settled long ago and are only disputed by extreme anti 2A types.
That stills contains a lotta qualifiers the government is supposedly making the call on.
