But if there's no well-regulated militia--its duties today being done by the police, the military, the national guard, etc.--what need for the weapon?

Getting rid of citizens' rights to bear arms means that all arms will be held by the government. This creates an imbalance of power in the government's favor. Why do you want to create a police state, Andy?
