The Notes are available at several online sites. Here's one: http://context.montpelier.org/document/178

Searching on the word 'arms' gives access to some summary of discussion of militia.

But there's no discussion of the 2nd Amendment. The Notes cover the Constitutional Convention, which did not produce the Bill of Rights.
