I've also seen the term "master armorer" on at least one movie, though I think it's meant to distinguish the "lead" armorer from the "assistants".
EDIT: Did a quick IMDB search of those phrases. Simon Atherton is credited as "Master Armorer" on Black Hawk Down, and Mike Papac was "Master Armorer" on S.W.A.T. and XXX 2. It looks like Harry Lu was credited as "weapons master" on a bunch of movies.

Actually I mean usernames. NOT talking about actual titles. I mean like I go on an airsoft forum or a Video Game forum and every other user has a name like 'Death Master' or 'Sniper Master'. I wasn't talking about pros in the field who are given those titles. Usually the Master Armorer is the head dude, who overseas the other armorers. Weapons Master usually (thought not always) means the guy who not only provides the weapons, but does a lot of the on set training (and it refers A LOT to edged weapons experts as well as gun experts).
So No, I was talking about posers, not professionals
