But the second amendment has not currently been incorporated, which means it does not currently apply to the states (except for in the 9th circuit).
The Second Amendment applied to all states the day the final state ratified the Bill of Rights.
The Bill of Rights did not originally apply to the states, just the federal government.
They do now.
Every single one of them.
Have done so for the longest time.
Guess what?
The Second Amendment applies to all fifty states. The states aren't required to pass any laws of their own or nothin', the Constitution has supreme authority.
Has ever since it was ratified, even if it took a war to settle that issue.
