Default Small arms locker questions

Type of ship, size of crew? Interested in Subs and Aircraft Carriers as

well
as FFG's and DD's

Size and location of locker?

What type and how many weapons? The more detail the better

Most unusual weapon or item stored in Locker?

Is there more than one locker?

Would an attached aircrew have a separate locker?

Who has a key besides the Master at Arms?

Is a Stinger a small arm and are they stored in the small arms locker or
elsewhere?

Are explosives stored there?


For someone posting without an return E-mail address you want to know a lot.
I don't think I will tell you.

I would be interested in conversations about small arms held aboard
ships. Do FFGs or DDs carry Stingers? I could see a use for a Stinger
aboard an SSN or SSBN (Hey, howabout Stingers aboard the SSGN's?) but
aboard a Destroyer? Especially a Burke...

It's where we stored the Turkish shotguns that crewmembers bought in port.
Seemed more sensible than to use berthing

The rest of the questions... good luck on those. Frankly, most of it isn't
any of your business if you have to resort to usenet to ask.

Actually I thought about putting in a disclaimer saying if you thought it
was better not to answer for CURRENT operational ships then not to post

In that case maybe you could focus your question(s) a little. Your original
post seemed to "cover a lot of ground".

I might be able to help with the carrier and aviation type stuff.

As for no e-mail address I just want to avoid the spamming hordes. My IP
address and who my ISP is there for all to see.

My interest is pure curiousity

These questions seem to cover a pretty broad spectrum: care to explain

where
the gathered info will go?

I'm kinda thinking it's for no good purpose- am I wrong?

Or is this just a troll?

For our '88 Cruise, every JOs safe in their stateroom.

Wonder if it's the same for guys flying in DS I/II...

We all bought handguns, flew with them...
