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.

Again, well-regulated describes the militia, not the keeping of arms. There is nothing that says one must be a member of a militia in order to keep arms.
