The Second Amendment ACKNOWLEDGES our right to own and bear arms that are in common use that can be used for lawful purposes. The arms can be restricted ONLY if subject to historical analogue from the founding era or is dangerous (unsafe) AND unusual.
It's that simple.
Isn't there a saying about how we only build good judgement through experience, and we only build experience through surviving the consequences of bad judgement?
I've actually been starting to work on a piece for one of the politics sites I sometimes write for about "panic-proof prepping, practical stockpiling one case of ammo at a time" which ties into this and it might be interesting if we all could pool resources and spitball ideas about building up household stores, including education/training, on a budget of about say $200 a month.

When I first started taking training... CCW, intermediate, advanced, etc.... I was already a very experienced shooter, but needed some structured training in areas other than marksmanship.
I remember some lady seeing my marksmanship and telling me I should be a cop. I laughed about it later... Like all you had to do as a cop was show up and shoot.

No. I am not going for instruction. I hit what I am shooting at just fine and I work on what my weaknesses are. The negatives outweigh the positives as far as I am concerned, as I have explained. Frankly, I am sick and tired of people recommending "instruction"as a cure for everything. Did Daniel Boone attend a training school? The standard answer here for any issue seems to be a Gucci gun, an Aimpoint, and instruction. I am not going for any of those.
Daniel Boone? Seriously? Yea he probably had training from day one. It was called life. Had to know how to shoot, hunt, fish, trap, etc... But who gives a shit about him. And I don't remember Glock and Colt being "Gucci". Hell I buy mine police used

Regarding the need for instruction, or certain people's confidence in thinking it serves no purpose or they don't need it for any of the plethora of reasons they come up with- a wise man I met once had a saying regarding that;
"You don't know what you don't know."
On topic, for the OP, here's an article from long ago that may help any interested parties;
