When the rights and safety of the many is impinged on by the rights of the individual, unfortunately that means that there will be regulation to try to create a balance between the two. When the clause in the constitution about guns was put in, it also meant that guns and there restriction then came under the control of not only the state but the federal government. Guns without regulations impinges on the rights of the many, because if certain guns were legal it would be easier for there to be mass killings. Gun laws in some cases are there for one reason, to protect the wellbeing of the user as well as of the public. While I respect your opinion that guns shouldnt be as heavily controlled I cannot agree with it.
People have the right to expect some degree of safety in their country. Regulations on the construction and creation helps insure that they are safe for the end user to use. Gun laws on who can own a gun try to keep guns out of the hands of those who have commited violent crimes before this point. You cant say that the government has a say on some parts of the constitution but not on others.
