You guys just keep walking into doors. If you knew half as much as you believe you knew, you wouldn't make such stupid statements.

The nature of our legal system is such that if a constitutional right is to be denied any individual or group, law must be legislated that specifically enumerates which right is to be denied (in your absurd example it is the right to own a firearm), from whom the right is to be denied (those who barring felony convictions are under the age of 18 for long guns and 21 for handguns) and for what reason the right is to be denied (because we as a society have decided that one must reach a certain level of maturity before we as a society trust them to own a firearm.

Now, do feel free to point out the law that has been duely legislated that denies unborn human beings the right to live until such time as they have been born.

Since we all know that you can't do that, you might take the time you would have spent googling and learn something about the nature of our legal system and the constitution.
