Final sentence of the first amendment of the constitution: The right to petition government for redress of grievances is the right to make a complaint to, or seek the assistance of, one's government, without fear of punishment or reprisals, ensured by the First Amendment to the United States Constitution (1791).

Unless someone can outright convince the courts that the commercially available weapons are weapons of war, you're argument dosen't work. A gun manufacturer will just point out that civilian designed weapons are far more limited then the ones that they sell to the US government.
I'd also ask you to clarify for me, because I'm dumb how you're argument around that phrase of the first amendment impacts at all on the second amendment.
