No and no.

American bases are leased territories of the host nation. The Status of Forces Agreement (SOFA) addresses all differences of laws and policies within the base. Civilian contractors are not allowed to have weapons. Military personnel are, for obvious reasons, but only because having a firearm is necessary for the performance of their duties. Such weapons are usually not kept at home (exceptions being high ranking officers, or military police).
