In NH we have such a law. You must get an order from the court for LE to return it to you.

I know in Missouri you can’t purchase a gun when you have a restraining order, whether they can take your existing guns and ammo is something to wonder about.
I knew if there was a restraining order out on you, you couldn’t buy a gun...didn’t think it applied to ammo, but it makes sense. Most people who get an RO typically are violent, angry, dangerous etc.
That was the basis for the arrest of Emerson in TX, the well known case which went to the 5th circuit court where his conviction for possessing a gun while under a restraining order was upheld.
The reason it became well known is that although Emerson's conviction was upheld, the New Orleans circuit court's decision also found that the 2nd Amendment guarantees an individual right to keep and bear arms, a decision that goes against previous decisions by most of the other circuits which have ruled that it only guarantees the right of the states to arm a militia.
