im pretty sure, this has been going on for some time now.
And this is a little dated... um that whole 90 days til inauguration thing, that's long passed.

Ft Riley is the only post I've heard of that actually does this. I've never personally been asked to do this or know of anyone who has.

Girlscouts? Hmmm, I don't know... I think it's kinda dangerous to teach young girls self esteem and leadership skills.
Here's a mention of it from 2009:

Were you at Carson a couple years ago? They did a huge push to get all off-post private weapons registered on Ft. Carson too. Even if they were your spouses. I just kept my mouth shut about owning what I own, and waited out the storm. Luckily, the NDAA passed and included (to my understanding) a rider that prohibited the Provost Marshall from collecting off-post firearm info, and they were given 30 days to destroy their existing records or they could be criminally charged. I kept a copy of the law in my pocket at work, but immediately after I heard about the NDAA rider, the registration demands ended and I never had to fight the system about it.
You want to be a martyr, I want to make you one.
No matter how outdated it is, this is something that should not be happening. I understand registering your firearms for use on post or if you reside there. The info for registering on post is just make, model, serial #, and barrell length and Commanders signature, no other info is asked.
@josh7328 I never new that. I was here from 01-09 and just came back in April.
It isn't happening, I promise you. The only time you have to register your weapons on post is if they are stored on post or if you bring them on post to shoot. A unit CANNOT make you register a weapon that is kept off post and you don't bring it on post.
Some years ago, there was a S-2 form that claimed that if you lived within 50 miles of post you had to register you weapons. We squashed that one dead.
If someone tries to tell you that you HAVE to register your off-post weapons, just swing on by the IG office and it will be handled.
