This thread could hurt the original poster more then help. He is asking unknown individuals on the internet for legal advice which may or may not be correct.
The best course of action would be to get the opinion from a military lawyer. Then also followup by getting an opinion from both the state and local authorities that have authority over these issues. Check with the BATF If it involves the military, then you probably have to get your commanding officer involved somehow and you may need to get their opinion. Why not ask the base armorer to see if there are folks who have their weapons stored there and get his opinion?
This situation has probably come up a number of times and someone will know the answers. You are probably not the first person with this particular situation. When you talk with people, take copious notes on who you talked to, when and what was said. Try to get opinions in writing. So if something goes down where you end up in trouble, then you can demonstrate all the reasearch that was done.
