SCOTUS has applied a test that gun laws must be consistent with limits in place at the time of the inclusion of the second amendment into the constitution. That opens the door to antis-, who will then argue that the Second should only protect weapons which existed at that time. The unthinking public will lap up that argument.

Nope. The Supreme Court has already addressed that in rulings. The 2nd Amendment applies to "guns in common use". Even the ATF has stated that in some of their rulings.

So, we play lawfare. Oregon has petition initiative referenda, which allows for direct democracy. We currently have a draconian gun law pending.
