But that's not what the case is. It specifies that people with pistols are not okay even if they are in a private army. Or if you're referring back to Malloyd's prior version, the private armies were using bows because the rules did apply to them, they just didn't forbid them from being an army. There's nothing there about the rules not applying to people in power either way.


Having somebody enforcing weapon restrictions while not holding any sort of monopoly of force position is pretty weird. I wonder how that works.
