It would appear that no American should be allowed to own a gun unless they have undergone rigorous military training which would classify them as 'well regulated' in the sense that was intended at the time. Your comment about training 'not necessarily' being required would seem to be directly contradicted by Hamilton.

There is the problem that Alexander Hamilton wasn't in Congress when the 2nd Amendment, along with the rest of the Bill of Rights, was drafted and passed (he was Secretary of the Treasury at the time).
