1. The Glock 19 has no exposed hammer. This gun uses an internal striker.

2. The Supreme Court has held that police must stop questioning suspects once they assert their right to counsel, but it has also held that a person must affirmatively invoke the right to silence.

3. There are five possible responses to a life-threatening encounter:

  1. Freeze - The victim of the attack may be so overwhelmed or surprised by being threatened, the victim may become incapable of any action;
  2. Submit - Simply giving into the attacker;
  3. Posture - Combat without combat. Words, sounds, gestures and body language are weapons used to dominate, intimidate and subdue another. Depending on circumstances, the attacker and the victim, one may try to out-bluster the other until one backs down or flees.;
  4. Flight - Retreat or running away from the situation;
  5. Fight - The use of reasonable force to prevent an attacker from harming you

4. If you point your gun at someone and you are not able to articulate your legal justification for doing so, you run the risk of criminal prosecution.

5. Regarding the color codes of awareness, condition black means that the lethal assault is underway and someone is trying to kill you.

6. A claim of self-defense requires that you be an innocent party and a reluctant participant in the altercation.

7. In order to use deadly force against another, the attacker must truly have the ability to kill or cause great bodily harm. This "ability” may come in the form of having a dangerous or deadly weapon or a disparity of force exists between the victim and the attacker. Select all the items below that represent a "disparity of force".

8. Some states do not regulate "carry" at all (aka Constitutional Carry) with the exception of having an age requirement and not being a person prohibited from owning a firearm.

9. Generally, the best place to find and research firearm related products and accessories is on the Internet e.g. Google

10. Conversations with your attorney are privileged and generally cannot be disclosed to law enforcement. This is not the case when discussing matters with friends or family.

11. Firearms don't generally need to be cleaned to prevent lead, copper and powder buildup in the firearm.

12. Semi-automatics are generally considered to be less complicated to operate than revolvers.

13. UAPDI is authorized by the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension to certify individuals so that they may teach the Minnesota Permit to Carry class?

14. Hollow-point bullets are designed to expand when they enter the body.

15. Properly documenting your training (formal and informal) is important so that you can prove in court that you had specific knowledge at the time of the shooting.
