I am not a lawyer but from what I understand that if the 2nd amendment was incorporated to the states that they could still regulate firearms but they will have to meet a much more demanding standard to do so. I don't see how the court could decide to not incorporate the 2nd amendment without gutting their own decision in Heller.
