What are your thoughts on the phrase “well regulated”?

In the grammatical context of the amendment, “a well regulated militia” and “the right of the people to keep and bear arms” are synonymous.
It does not read “A well regulated militia is necessary to the security of a free state. The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed”
It reads: “A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.”
Comma lives matter.
