One of the things that really angers me about supposed second amendment supporters is their quiet acceptance of laws infringing on my right to bear any arm that is not a gun. In most states where it is legal to carry guns around, there are way more restrictions on carrying things like knives, swords, polearms, etc.

Reminds me of messer blades. Basically local governments said swords weren't allowed so the people made extra long "knives" with a few sword features removed. Very similar to AR "pistols" today

But yeah good ole fashioned medieval weapons would be awesome to try out and own
