The first Trump administration attempted to do this, but were blocked by military bureucrats using the technique:

Defiance through Compliance

A small gesture, IMHO. You are required to submit a written request just to keep a gun inside your military home. Or to carry it concealed. And those of us who are retired? Can’t even ask for permission to CCW.

So if I go to town and need to visit the base for some reason, I cannot even carry a gun in my car. I have to either disobey the rules (!) or be totally unarmed my entire trip. Spent most of my adult life with a TS clearance, CCW almost all the time legally now, but cannot even keep a .380 in the car while stopping to do something on the base.

I rarely use the base anymore, but I think the entire policy is STUPID!
