Talking about a different country and different armed forces here, i.e. Italy.
I had for some reasons a CCW, but when entering the barracks I had to surrender the weapon at the guard (in the end we agreed to the armoury, just on the next building).
The rationale was that I was carrying for my own defense, but in a barracks I was supposed to be defended enough by the guards.
All the other military who had a CCW or had a weapon permit related to sport or hunting left their personal weapons at the armoury when entering the barracks.
Good thing was that the armourer was a real gun nut and did manteinance, tuning and general pampering of our personal shooting irons even better than he did with the issued weapons.....
