Yes we should as long as there is the right training for it. Most service member's are already qualified.

It's a great idea but it will be a training nightmare. If the top structures how properly thou it can deffinatly work.

Yes I do agree that military personnel should be allowed to conceal carry anywhere in the U.S. It doesn't make any sense to me that we stand ready to protect our nation foreign and domestic, but we have no right to protect ourselves on our own soil. Great topic

I am all for this. I carry whenever I can. However, due to base restrictions, I have to leave my weapon at home any day I work. Which in all honesty is when I am most likely to be a target. This is a great idea, especially with the increased threat, lately. We're always getting emails about securing our Facebook accounts which begs the question, because anybody can look at me from day to day and see the I'm an airman

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State - Security of a free state, this doesn't mean hunting, this doesn't mean sport shooting, this is to ensure the protection of our freedom, from foreigners and also for an overbearing government.
the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed. - shall not be infringed, not "you can carry concealed, if you have a permit".
I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic - we all took this oath, yet we discuss who should be able to carry and when. we should be saying no, no you will not enforce these laws that are in a direct violation of the constitution. no we do not need a CCW. No, I will not hide my weapon.
The key is also, against all enemies foreign and domestic. the government passing these illegal laws is a domestic enemy of the constitution, yet we do nothing.
why are they not being held accountable? Why has America turned into a pussification state?
Unfortunately, I have my CCW, and carry daily. I hate playing the game, but as long as senior leadership does nothing, what can you do? They will throw you under the bus to protect themselves, seen it too many times.

Yes I think soldiers should be able to carry, hell soldiers already have had weapons safety training. If not shame on their DI. Anyone deployed in the combat zone has had to carry a loaded weapon for 9 to 12 months. I'm not going to continue to write on I think everyone knows where I'm going with this.

Double NO. Even military members can feel depression, anxiety, debt, temper tantrums, etc. Under those conditions, would you want somebody armed and capable of snapping? I wouldn't.

Agree..however, police officers and federal officers go through these processes also. It's human nature..in that sense no one should have any kind of weapon..let's see how long we survive

The Law would just make you eligible to have the CC permit. You would still have to be signed off with the appropriate training and medical endorsements. Normal citizens go through the same things as well.

They should offer a free course to all active duty personal, specific on concealed carry(or open carry) and procedures involved should a situation arise. Upon completion of the course, a federal license should be issued. Of course, the firearms would need to be checked in upon entering base or secured government areas. In my opinion.

If the personnel are properly trained with the statutes of the local and state law as well as federal, there should be an allowance to purchase and keep a sidearm. With the new emerging threat of active shooter and domestic lone wolf terrorism, service members should be equipped with a means to protect themselves and others from life threatening situations. SM's are allowed to carry overseas but not on their own base? Is a question that is astonishing.

Though I think it's a valid idea, is it not a possible Posse Comitatus Act violation? Also, no less than 50% of Air Force officers should ever come in contact with a gun.
