Because muskets were the latest technology - so citizens had the technological equivalent of government military forces. They didn't specify "muskets", but rather "arms". I don't like every part of the Constitution/Amendments, (specifically the 12th Amendment - Electoral College) - but until it is changed or repealed, I respect and abide by it or work to change it.
