This shouldn't be an issue for Americans because it would be unconstitutional to take away guns. The 2nd Amendment forbids the government to take guns away from the people.

Also, I believe that in US vs Miller, the Supreme Court decided that "a well regulated militia" was essentially comprised of "all males physically capable of acting in concert for the common defense,'' who, ''when called for service . . . were expected to appear bearing arms supplied by themselves and of the kind in common use at the time.'' This would suggest that any argument that "well regulated militia means state police!" is false.(
