Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this unconstitutional?

Nope, not in the legal Bizarro World of the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.

The Ninth Circuit has determined, in their infinitesimal wisdom, that the Second Amendment protects a "collective" right, not an individual right, and that individual citizens of California do not have standing to bring a Second Amendment claim. The US Supreme Court refused to hear an appeal of this position despite clear conflict with the Fifth Circuit.

See http://www.tacr.us/ for details.
