According to 'The Feather Men' novel yes they do.
they have to request a special firearms certificate before they leave the regiment, which is reviewed every 12 months , it allows those ex troopers considered to be under threat or in danger to hold and carry their service pistol only, it does not cover any other firearms at all and can be with drawn at anytime if and when it is considered they are no longer in danger .
fact and fiction are completely different!
