Private bodyguards have the same rights as every other civilian. This means that if a state prohibits people from having firearms, private bodyguards wouldn’t be treated differently.
How then will a private unarmed bodyguard be able to protect a vip in very dangerous parts of town where almost everyone (Edit: a lot of persons) has illegally obtained firearms? Are they trained to disarm people? Or do they just scatter and bail?

One example: back when Illinois (the state Chicago is in) had very restrictive gun laws before the Supreme Court struck many of them down, it was still easy for retired police to get a concealed carry license. Thus, many retired police were hired as security guards since it was one of the only ways to hire armed security.
