When A Gun Is / Is Not An Option (WAGINAO) is designed for the responsible citizen who desires to gain the knowledge and understanding of the lawful levels of force and the tools and techniques available to them in lawful self-defense.

Arguably THE MOST IMPORTANT class MDFI offers, When A Gun Is/Is Not An Option is a fun, educational, and interactive seminar-based class where students will have the ability to learn, discuss the, “what ifs,” participate in video and situational analysis, and get in-depth knowledge on defensive tools available to the responsible citizen.

The information provided in this class is absolutely necessary for anyone who believes they as an individual are the best first line of defense for themselves and others that they care about. If you think that task is best left to someone else (e.g. the police or some other entity) you're probably not going to benefit as much from it. Then again, if that's your thinking you probably won't be on this website.

The WAGINAO class - in March 2023 - was very good. All of the course content / examples were very good. It clarified - for me - the proper use and laws of all the alternative products available. Class length was just right. I have taken the Medical Class and learned alot also. I will attend more classes and I will highly recommend them to others. Thank you for the high quality instruction and instructors.

There were 5 of us from our family at this class. Trek covered a lot of information that was new to a lot of us. He did a great job of providing times of questions and feedback so we all could engage in the material. We all hope and pray we never need to defend ourselves from the worst. This class educated us in several ways to either "not be present" when trouble happens or how to "deescalate a potentially bad situation". This learning is priceless to our family! We suggest you take multiple members from your household so you can continue to compare notes afterwards and keep the information fresh.

This was my first class with the MDFI. I learned more from Treck in 8 hours about situational awarness and how to handle situations, than I did taken 2-3 day long seminars. The training and information is brokn down so its easy to learn and remember. I look forward to taking more classes at the MDFI.

Ive taken other classes that were 2-3 days long on situation awarness, but walk away with more

Trec broke this all down into an 8 hours course.

So much of what we like to train is around the sexy gun craft stuff. Yet so much of life's potential conflict problems are not in the realm where use of lethal force is justified. WAGINAO is an essential part of being a well-rounded, responsibly armed and equipped citizen. The class balances mindset, legality, real-world examples, and gear selection. And it's executed in the MDFI style we've come to love: Safe, Fun, Educational.
