Get the program's equipment list before ordering for a supervised session. The instructor or coordinator decides which versions, supplies and protection are accepted.
Ask what is provided
Find out which items the program supplies and which participants must bring. Obtain the actual model names, quantities and current requirements rather than relying on a previous session's list.
Use the accepted version
Match manufacturer, model, generation and variant. A product with a training label is not automatically an approved substitute. If Milsig GD50 .50 Cal Less-Lethal Pistol or Mercury Rise IntruBuster GEN2 .68 Cal Prepared Kit appears in a proposed order, have the coordinator confirm the actual model and supplies; the retail listing does not authorize its use in the session.
Check the support items
Compare the order contents with the program's protection, consumable, care and storage requirements. Keep a question open if the required part or approval is missing.
Confirm responsibility
Ask who controls access, keeps the manuals and arranges care or qualified service. Obtain the program's written site, safety and emergency arrangements from the responsible provider.
Before payment
Check current stock and order terms for the selected items. Buying equipment does not approve the site, certify a participant or replace qualified instruction.
