Aren't you older than 45? 
See the highlighted portion of my post.
My thinking is this...the Constitution doesn't say guns, it says arms. If I have the wherewithal to buy one, I believe I have the right to own an Abrams.
This part doesn't affect me ...but the US Code states, regarding militias, that all able bodied males between 17 and 45 are part of the "unorganized" militia.

The point being, you can't have the unorganized part of the militia if there is a gun ban.
