Hmm... laws that are endangerred by the new ruling...
First we must acknowledge that the court did not say laws regulating the 2A could not be enacted. That being the case any law which has as a purpose the prevention of criminals (violent felons at the minimum) and those who are mentally ill will not be in peril so long as they allow the law abiding citizen to own a firearm.
Laws that make it impossible for one to own a whole classification of firearms (all handguns, all shotguns, all rifles) are in immediate peril. The handgun ban in suburban Chicago (can't remember the town) is one in particular.
Laws that set "unreasonable" (as determined by a court) hurdles, either through time or money, on being able to own a firearm are at lesser peril but still open to attack. The restrictions on firearms and enormous hurdles present in places like NYC fall into this category.
Laws that make the issuance of carry permits discretionary in states like NY and NJ are also endangerred. By having a permit system the state acknowledges a citizen can carry (bear) a firearm but the discretionary nature in which they are issued runs contrary to that. Either the right exists or it does not but it must be uniform to all law abiding citizens.
Carry permits in general are not about to get overturned and the nation become total CCW/open carry friendly becasue the court did not say regulation of the 2A was not allowed.
