... which implies we have the right to keep and bear arms.
True , but that right is not granted by the second amendment. It was considered a natural right. That is why the first ten amendments put restrictions on the federal government. If we want to argue that the second amendment does not guarantee the right to bear any weapon of choice it seems to me an updating of the constitution is in order.
