"Alito noted that while fully binding on states and cities, the Second Amendment "limits (but by no means eliminates) their ability to devise solutions to social problems that suit local needs and values." My question on this is this: To which other of the 10 Amendments would the courts apply this?

Well, the first amendment has limits for slander and libel. Communities frequently require permits for large assemblies.
There are some that think there should be restrictions on a convicted felon's right to have a gun, or perhaps those that have been determined to be mentally ill.
