I figure that the original intent was along the lines of wanting there to be the facility for citizens to have the wherewithal to form a civil defense unit to overthrow a tyranical government (i.e. the British).
Therefore I would suggest:
"In order that a militia may be formed, the government shall allow citizens to form locally organised arrmed units with standardised weaponry as used by the infantry regiments of national guard units. Citizens joining such militia units shall be entitled to keep their weapon within their dwelling for as long as they continue to be part of the duly constituted milita".

In labyrinths of Coral Caves,
The Echo of a distant time
Comes willowing across the sand;
And everthing is Green and Submarine
