We have a proper military now; this no longer applies. Unless you're planning on overthrowing the government.

If you take out Americans right to bear arms. Then you run the risk of setting a precedent. If you change once. It no longer becomes a big deal to make changes again. Europe/ britain. Are both a mess. They have no freedoms. They would be the last people i would take advice from when it comes to what makes a better country
