How This SWAT Legend Mastered Combat with Mindset and Skill

On this episode of the Taking Aim podcast, host Richard Nance sat down with Jared Reston, a seasoned SWAT veteran from Jacksonville, shares his journey from an athletic youth inspired by his law enforcement brother to a decorated officer with 17 years of full-time SWAT experience. He recounts a harrowing 2008 shootout at a mall, where a routine shoplifting call escalated into a life-or-death gunfight, leaving him severely wounded but victorious due to his training and mindset. Jared emphasizes the critical role of mental preparation, reliable gear, and rigorous training in surviving deadly encounters, offering insights from his extensive career, including over a thousand SWAT operations and leadership roles. Now retired, he trains both law enforcement and civilians through his company, stressing the importance of humility, teamwork, and preparation for high-stakes situations, while also working with Safariland to promote quality duty gear.
