34. A meaning of well equiped that suggests the need to know who, what, where for when the call-up comes

If we do not know what and where inventory of arms is available, we can't know if the arms are in operable condition with available ammo or any other possible qualifying or defining meaning of 'well regulated'.
Without knowing that Joe has an arsenal, how can the militia know that there are many more rifles available beyond the one Joe brought.

I personally love pushing back against gunsin-sanity via the 'well regulated" (can't be meaningless) words.
