The weapons Washington, Jefferson, Hamilton, Franklin, and others considered as "arms" are far different from the arms of 2022.
I would assume that our founding fathers also knew that technology would continue to improve/change in the future, as to what would be considered "arms"; yet they did not restrict that term to only "arms" that existed at the time.
