constitutional gun rights, and they both regulated guns.

WHAT THE FRAMERS INTENDED: A
LINGUISTIC ANALYSIS OF THE RIGHT
TO "BEAR ARMS" (bottom of p2)
https://scholarship.law.duke.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=3830&context=lcp

the first state Declaration
of Rights to use the term "bear arms" was that of Pennsylvania in 1776:
"That the people have a right to bear arms in defense of themselves and the
State." 13

and Virginia:
“That a well regulated militia, composed of the body of the people, trained to arms, is the proper, natural, and safe defense of a free state.”

But the framers did believe that those rights could be regulated:

6 In the 1770s, Pennsylvania enacted a law to bar or strip guns
from those who refused to swear loyalty to the new American government.107 In
fact, ten of the thirteen states had laws allowing the impressment—that is,
taking—of privately held firearms during the Revolutionary War.108
