As you also, rightly, point out, the court also has stated the right is "not unlimited" leaving room for sensible long standing regulation (specifically items like prohibiting felons, mentally ill, etc.). As to the 2nd being "archaic", if so, there is a process for that. It's called another amendment. Just get 38 states to agree with you. "Sensible long standing regulation" would regulate military weapons, and there's precedent for that. It is archaic and I am fine with repealing it on that basis. And short of implementing more effective regulations now, that's where we are heading longer term. You can defy popular political will for only so long, even in our system.
