“The Framers could not have imagined in their wildest dreams a jam-packed airport,stadium,or mall.”

Or radio, television or the Internet - but that is no more an argument for allowing government control of the airwaves than crowded locations would argue for gun control.

The Founders knew about technological progress, and some of them were in the Continental Congress when Joseph Belton presented his Belton Gun, which allowed for rapid fire (it was purchased, as it was too expensive). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belton_flintlock

Your argument for restricting modern firearms because the Founders never imagined them is easily disposed of garbage. You are, of course, entitled to your (statist) opinion in the matter, but if you go down that path then free speech itself is in danger.
