It’s not clear to me that those laws are constitutional either. Judge Amy Coney Barrett recently wrote an excellent dissent that addresses that issue: https://originalismblog.typepad.com/the-originalism-blog/201...

Of course the Second Amendment is not unlimited, just like the First. My point simply is that due process, by itself, is not enough to take away the right. You need to be able to point to an inherent limitation of the concept of “the right to keep and bear arms.” As Judge Barrett points out, while the concept of the right to bear arms was not unlimited, it doesn’t necessarily exclude felons (and, as her sources show, “dangerous people” either). The New Hampshire proposed amendment, for example, would have excluded only people who had engaged in rebellion.
