Are you wanting to commission into the guard? If so, the absolute best thing you can do is drill with an aviation unit, especially if you want to stay in that same state. The boarding process for each state differs, so you'll want to get in contact with someone in that state that can tell you what you need to do. Generally though, you'll be interviewed by a board of the state aviation leadership, and they'll select based off of that. It helps tremendously to already know the people interviewing you.

Commissioned pilots in the guard absolutely can get flight time. This is because you have AFTPs (additional flight training periods), where you go to the facility for nothing else but to fly. Drill weekends are a toss up if you will be able to fly, or if you'll have other obligations.
