So, then, your interpretation of "arms" means weapons small enough to be carried around. Therefore, if you're correct, any citizen can have any weapon small enough to be carried.
I'm not so sure your interpretation is correct, as the colonials had private warships, which are somewhat difficult to put into ones' pocket, but nevertheless, your interpretation is at odds with that of the SCOTUS.
If the founders meant guns to be heavily regulated, why did they include the language ...."shall not be infringed"?
