Not exactly… the founders feared civilian uprisings similar to Shay’s Rebellion and the Whiskey Rebellion, and knew they might need a way to marshal armed forces quickly. At the time standing armies were seen as somewhat tyrannical, and the founders did not envision a strong federal government with access to soldiers like that. Militias were a solution, and so that each militiaman could bring his own weapons to battle, the Second Amendment was written into the Bill of Rights.
