Re: Can whilst on active duty
I don't know of any military regulations against owning a can while on active duty. I'd suspect it depends on whether you live on post or not. If I lived on post, no way in hell would I store something like that in an arms room. I haven't seen any UCMJ regs that restrict firearms ownership beyond what any state laws exist.
Since you're also concerned about moving with a can from state to state, I don't think you'd have problems so long as both Missouri and VA are can-friendly states. There's a lot of guys on here that can tell you for sure about that.

Re: Can whilst on active duty
cans across state lines don't have to be reported to ATF. Just make sure you don't take it to a state that forbids them for private citizens without class 3 or class 2 permits. the military doesn't care about them,and they shouldn't it's just a metal tube that reduces sound.

You do have to fill out a form if you cross state lines with a suppressor. Even if it's for a day you must fill out a 5320.20 and fax it to the ATF.

a 5320.20 is not required for a suppressor.
