After the police agencies in California threw such a fit that the courts made concealed carry 'shall' issue, the government threw such a fit that they wholesale published the names, addresses, and DROS details of everyone in California with a CCW, including say DV victims that might be in hiding and even hilariously judges and prosecutors [].
They tried to make it sound like a 'leak', but it was published on a polished government website that let you filter and aggregate the results.
By design courts aren't held accountable by the people. Especially federal ones (aware this is a state court here, though).
SCOTUS for instance, who might hear the case, are nominated by government executives, not the people. They have zero incentive to do anything other than to garner favors from the government. That is why you walk away with insane judgements like Wickard v Filburn.
Of course, you could argue the seizure is an 8th amendment violation. Then you would take note you can go to jail for 10 years for not paying a $5 tax for any other weapon as defined by the NFA, and starting next year you can go to jail for a decade for not paying a $0 tax.

Congress could place statutory limits in this behavior, it doesn't have to come from the courts.

SCOTUS is currently demoting Congress from coequal branch.

It's also marginally useful and we're on the upswing end of this law-and-order cycle.
