As I have pointed out previously and documented in a reference I have also pointed out repeatedly, the reasons for states' insistence of 2A RKBA was:
1. Deter government tyranny
2. Self and community (state/country) defense
3. Hunting (although less so than the above two reasons)
I find it rather curious that the 2A omits such important reasons, whereas the other nine amendments in the Bill of Rights are so specific in spelling out their protections.
