As far as I know the article is, at best, mistaken. And personally, I don't believe that the article is correct.
Authorities in California are confiscating guns in possession of prohibited persons, and under California law a somewhat wider range of persons convicted of misdemeanors are prohibited from possessing guns.
So considering the sources and the fact that those sources didn't bother to reference the law, I'm inclined to dismiss the whole thing.
