Yes. I was mostly stating my agreement with zorkian where he says, Personally, I would be for incorporation of the 2nd with the interpretation of it as an individual right to bear arms.
That interpretation clearly (at least, clearly to me, the non-lawyer) invalidates laws saying that, e.g. "Okay, fine, you can own a gun but it has to be kept disassembled and locked up and you can't have it in your car unless you're on the way to or from the range or a hunting trip." But then there's the question of which restrictions are okay and which aren't, which is why I brought up NFA stuff.
