Walk me through your experience with firearms. On a scale of 1-10, how comfortable are you around firearms?

"I am former military, highly trained in using various firearms and other weapons. My skill and comfortability level with firearms is a firm 10/10."

"My experience with firearms is limited; however, I see the importance of proper training. Should the use of firearms be a requirement of me as I grow my career in security services, I will be a keen student focused on safety and proper use."

Depending on the role to which you are applying, you may be required to be armed on the job. If you have experience with firearms, be sure to outline your knowledge and be prepared to verify any current licensing or certifications. If you are new to firearms, that is okay too! Discuss whether you are interested in firearm training and working your way into a role where this is a requirement.
