I hate to rain on your parade but the foregoing statement is hopelessly naive. Personal convictions, opinions, and wishful thinking aside, the government and courts ultimately define what "rights" exist under the Constitution, depending on which way the political winds happen to be blowing at any particular moment. The government and courts can (and routinely do) decide whether a purportedly "immutable" Constitutional right exists and, if so, to what extent. Consequently, neither the 2nd Amendment, nor any other provision of the Constitution, is secure from abrogation by the government.

My unhappy observation is based on practicing law for thirty years.
