Check around on the current rules. laws, etc. I got out of the Army around 1970 or so. Anyway, there was a 'rule' or whatever that you could apply to your CO to have your firearm. I had to lock it in the CO armory n duty, but I could check it out for range or carry use off base.
At that time, the CO gave me a written permit I had to carry whenever carrying. If the regulation is still there, you may be able to use it. As I recall, it was 'Shall Issue' based on good conduct, etc.
I'm kinda fuzzy on details, but that was 40 years ago.
