Perhaps.. a tax on the enjoyment, exercising and application of the 2A is the unconstitutional thing, but not on the goods?
To whit...
If they, (and they're wanting to) propose that a tax be imposed on the carry of arms, and also a tax be collected for the storage and keeping of arms on your property, then yes that would be blatantly unconstitutional.
Edit. We pay an excise tax and other things on phones, electronics, sales taxes on papers, pens, computers, taxes on the means to convey people, taxes on the property that other people can use ("public property") taxes on housing and shelters, taxes on capital gains....
