This is likely to be a major sticking point, and where I will depart from other liberal minded individuals.
Anyway this is my proposed text for a right to bear arms provision
Article 2
1)the right of the individual to bear arms in defense of himself and of the state and for hunting and lawful recreation shall not be abridged
A) "Abridged " is defined as any law, regulation or scheme of laws and regulations likely to discourage an individual from choosing to exercise the rights of this article
B) "Arms " means any device intended for use as a weapon that is capable of being employed by a single person
2) nothing in this article shall be construed as prohibiting regulations on the commercial sale or criminal use, or possession by individuals adjudicated as a danger to others either by criminal conviction or mental defect, provided said regulations do not violate section 1 of this article.
