Several protocols were followed for safety:
1. Everyone was frisked at the begining of class each day and after lunch, and all real weapons, knives, OC, were LOCKED away for the entire day. Whenever anyone came back from their car, they were frisked again just in case.
2. The UTM Glocks were clearly identified by the color of the barrel hood (blue). Before each scenario began, the weapons were all visually confirmed to be marker pistols by multiple people.
3. The instructor acting as safety officer controlled the loading of the marker pistols.
