I don't consider a "shall issue" permitting process to be a violation of the constitution.

The 2A talks about a "well regulated" militia, and I consider training and background checks to fall under the "well regulated" concept.

There are few absolute rights. Your liberty and even your life can be taken away by the government for crimes committed.

BTW, I own property in Idaho and go there often. If it weren't for family ties to California, I'd move my primary residence there.
