2nd amendment specifically says “Congress shall make no law...” so even if they did write and pass a law, that law would be specifically and demonstrably unconstitutional.

Any law repugnant to the constitution is null and void. That was a supreme court decision way back the name of which escapes me now. Kinda neat isn’t it!

Actually, the 2nd says "...shall not be infringed".

The 1st says "Congress shall make no law...".
