Significant: Firearm possession and armed deployment must comply with the Arms Act, applicable rules, licence conditions and private security regulations. A personal gun licence alone does not automatically authorise commercial armed-security deployment.

My recommendation for your requirement: Recruit through a reputed licensed security agency and specify the position as Armed Personal Security Officer (PSO) to Managing Director – 24×7 Deployment. This is more professional than advertising simply for a Gunner.
