Just as the 18th Amendment was repealed by the 21st Amendment, the 2nd Amendment could be repealed by another Amendment to the US Constitution. Whether such an Amendment will ever be passed and ratified is currently doubtful.

No. Yet decisions can be made that can change or use the amendment to make new law. Example: The 14th amendment was used to institute the reading of rights when an arrest is made. In 1969 the same amendment was used to stop the death penalty because it took away the right to "life, liberty, and happiness." The interpretation of the 4, 5, and 14 th amendments were changed in 1957 in the Supreme Court ruling of Mapp v Ohio.
