The article makes the Court's decisions here sound like a matter of personal preference. It doesn't mention their stated reasoning (even if only to argue against it), which, IIUC, is something like: the states have to follow the Bill of Rights, and the Bill of Rights explicitly lists the right to bear arms. In contrast, nothing in the Bill of Rights – or anywhere else in the Constitution for that matter – mentions abortion.
