Thank you. It appears those at the time were tying the second amendment to specific provisions in the Constitution. By the way, didn’t Patrick Henry oppose the Constitution?

Yes, Patrick Henry lead the Anti-Federals in VA. His stature and reputation were second only to George Washington.

Had he and a few other Whig patriots attended the Constitutional Convention to which they were appointed, there is little doubt the Convention would have drafted a different product.
