Default C-12, Airlines, Both?

Greetings,

Hello all, I am being presented with an opportunity to join a National Guard C-12 unit, and I have a few QOL questions before I pull the trigger (or not) on going back in.

Backstory: Currently in the IRR, 11 years of service before entering IRR. Presently, flying for a regional carrier, married with two kids and trying to keep it that way...

Questions:

- What would be a typical schedule for both Airlines and Guard/Reserve unit?

- How many days off can I expect per month? (I realize this might be relative, just looking for a general ballpark)

- For those who are currently in a Guard/Reserve unit, how do you manage your schedule between airline and unit? (bid long call?)

- Looking forward, would the Majors be more interested in 121 Jet experience or military King Air experience?

Thank you in advance for all advice and information
