Constitutionality of banning certain types of bullets

[Redalgo]

Perhaps it serves as an example of how the Constitution's contents have aged? Back then I don't expect there would have been much deliberation about the subject given that the lead balls could be produced by just about anyone with a campfire, pot, a basic hand-held tool and a little bit of know-how. With the advent of new technologies and with such remarkable social developments occurring over the years we end up having to grapple with many issues that the Founders likely could not have reasonably been expected to foresee and make prescriptions concerning - all the better I say that they left us with a legal framework for adapting to a world in constant change and means for amending the document if considered necessary by a substantial enough majority.
