Well, but what does that mean for the application of "lawful purposes" ?
It means that what the USSC said in many instances in the Heller decision still stands:
The handgun ban and the trigger-lock requirement (as applied to self-defense) violate the Second Amendment. The Districts total ban on handgun possession in the home amounts to a prohibition on an entire class of arms that Americans overwhelmingly choose for the lawful purpose of self-defense.
I recommend you read Heller carefully:
