Training and exercise facilities for members of governmental internal security forces, often under a subnational government.
Militia training facilities (also known in some areas as "armories"), are training and exercise areas for members of internal security forces under a government (often under a sub-national government).
The personnel belong to an internal security force under a government. A private armed group is outside that stated governmental relationship, even if its members use the same term for their organization.
Some qualifying facilities are called armories. An arsenal identifies weapons storage, so the name armory alone does not establish whether a site is used for training, storage, or both.
