Here's the problem, there's simply no logical way to square this with Bruen. Restraining orders and domestic violence prevention weren't part of the gun regulation at the founding of this country. It's obvious to most people that the state should have that authority, but it doesn't seem possible in the light of Bruen. Incoming mental gymnastics from SCOTUS...
I don't see how you figure. Bruen only eliminated subjective "suitability" determinations in may-issue permitting. Objective criteria, like criminal history, are still allowed.
That's not all Bruen did. Bruen also said a restriction on gun ownership had to be consistent with our history and values. Which we assume means you have to point to laws that did the same thing during the 1700s/1800s. Whether or not this is idiotic is rhetorical, but you can't point to a law that said you could take guns away because of domestic violence from that era, because domestic violence wasn't a crime then!
You should reread Bruen, and many of the exasperated appellate decisions that insist that they don't know how to comply with it, with some claiming they'd need to hire a historian to comply with it.
