The right to bear arms is hard to see in a society as egalitarian as ours is, but it's simple to see in an aristocratic one like England's. They treat the royal family there like they are better than the rest of them, and it's complete fiction and theater, but they all seem to really enjoy doing it so they keep it up.
Go back 100 years or 200 in time, when there were way more aristocrats there. Imagine an aristocrat attempting to murder a pleb. Does that pleb have the right to defend himself of course! But in order for it to not be an empty idea or platitude it must be a right to bear arms, in order that the pleb might defend himself against the aristocrat, no matter what weapon the aristocrat is using to try to kill him.
You can't have one right to bear arms for the aristocrats, and then another for the plebs. The aristocrats will always outgun the plebs in that case, rendering the plebs's right to bear arms, and thus their right to self-defense, inferior and gutted.
This is what Justice Thomas might fix for us if he gets half a chance.
