Respectfully your wrong, here is why: Volk means people which noted you have correct. Sadly this is were the correct part ends and the incorrect one does. Let me explain Ans means „to the“. Next it is important to the translation but Gewehr which uses wehr which used mostly as defense. Gewehr adds to it and makes it Rifle. If you wanted it to be arms as in the term for weapons Waffen would be the best word for it. Like Gewehr you may notice waffen as it is also used. Hope this helps.
