Can't imagine why they want to do away with the 2A.

Well, I guess Australia has come full circle. They went from penal colony, to a free country and back to penal colony.

"Australia is a constitutional monarchy with The Queen as Sovereign."

From the link -
“As a constitutional monarch, The Queen, by convention, is not involved in the day-to-day business of the Australian Government, but she continues to play important ceremonial and symbolic roles.”

So yes, they are part of the commonwealth. But Australia declared their independence in 1931. And England hasn’t had a say in its affairs in any practical way since at least 1975. They don’t ask the Crown’s permission to form a new parliament, or any of the stuff that normally happens in the UK.
