Same goes for the background-check requirement.
In general do the courts rule on a particular law with no regard to additional, relevant laws already on the books or do they take those other laws into account? If the former, then lawmakers can merely break apart an otherwise unconstitional law and adopt it piecemeal which would probably be more likely to pass anyway...
