Every male US citizen between 17 and 45 is a member of the militia. Free ammunition, firearms and training is a great idea! It would be a bit silly to hold the militia to a higher standard than professional military though, and they typically do annual qualifications.

Well members of the military are not allowed to roam about freely with concealed weapons, so yes obviously the militia has to be held to an higher standard!
