Your version is different than the one I'm used to seeing:

As ratified by the States and authenticated by Thomas Jefferson, Secretary of State:

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.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution


And as far as meaning is concerned: "the right of the people to keep and bear arms: that assuimes people have the right, then the amendment goes on to say that that right shall not be infringed.
