The only reason the 2nd might be ineffective against government
firepower is that we have allowed the government to overly restrict the
weapons an individual may possess. At this point, we better darn well
hope that if the government goes on a rampage, that enough of the
military don't agree that we gain some comparable firepower.

Realistically, what do you think the chances are of your government going on
the "rampage"?

  I'm sure the Branch Davidians perceived a rampage to be in the air, and
folks around Ruby Ridge might likewise agree that the guvmint sometimes
forcibly oversteps its bounds.
