I know the First Amendment is covered by strict scrutiny. What about the Second Amendment?

Well there are 3 standards for the First Amendment, not just strict scrutiny. The Court hasn't clarified which standards apply to the Second Amendment or when they apply. So the answer to your question is, for now, it depends on which Circuit's jurisdiction you live under.
