Blue Force Gear Presents: Between 2 Targets – Jared Reston

Saturday, March 8th, 2025

Former SWAT Officer Jared Reston Shares Life-Changing Experience

In this video Chris Sizelove and Jared Reston sit down for a conversation about gunfighting, mindset, and winning. Jared is a seasoned law enforcement veteran with over 20 years of service at Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office. Since retiring in 2020, he now travels the nation teaching firearms and tactics to prepared citizens, military personnel, and law enforcement agencies.

Jared’s perspective was forever altered in 2008 during what began as a routine shoplifter pursuit at Jacksonville’s Regency Square Mall. The confrontation turned deadly when the suspect produced a Glock 21 and shot Jared seven times. Despite taking rounds to his jaw, body armor, thigh, and other areas, Jared maintained his composure and returned fire effectively, neutralizing the threat. This watershed moment has radically impacted Jared’s life and inspired him to share training techniques with others through his training company, Reston Group Training.

Since this event, Jared has been an advocate for mindset. His training philosophy is clear: the goal in a lethal confrontation isn’t merely to survive—it’s to win. “I hate the term surviving,” he explains. “To me, survival is what you do if you crash your car in the woods and drink your pee and eat berries… a gunfight is a high-stakes game, and games have to have a winner.”

The conversation delves into the importance of shot placement and the resilience of the human body during traumatic injuries. Jared notes that while the human body is a large target, the areas that will immediately stop a threat are surprisingly small. Disrupting brain or heart function is about the only way to neutralize a threat.

Chris and Jared agree that proper mindset, weapon manipulation skills, and marksmanship are critical components in prevailing in armed confrontations. The function of training is to make fundamental skills so automatic that your mental bandwidth can be dedicated entirely to solving the immediate problem rather than worrying about manipulating your weapon.

Reston Group Training offers numerous open enrollment classes for civilians and professionals. Jared can also be found in New Hampshire at Ridgeline Defense, which he describes as “the Disney World of the shooting realm.” Even though Ridgeline is known for precision long-range shooting they now offer a wide variety of training including CQB.

SIG SAUER – The Truth About the P320

Friday, March 7th, 2025

NEWINGTON, N.H., (March 7, 2025) – The P320 CANNOT, under any circumstances, dischargewithout a trigger pull – that is a fact. The allegations against the P320 are nothing more than individuals seeking to profit or avoid personal responsibility.

Recently, anti-gun groups, members of the mainstream media, trial attorneys, and other uninformed and agenda-driven parties have launched attacks on one of SIG SAUER’s most trusted, most tested, and most popular products – the P320 pistol. In all cases, these individuals have an ulterior motive behind their baseless allegations that the P320 can fire without a trigger pull; they have no evidence, no data and no empirical testing to support any of their claims. They instead choose to misrepresent clear, negligent discharges as a “design problem.”

In the decade since its introduction, the P320 has undergone the most rigorous testing and evaluation of any firearm, by military and law enforcement agencies around the world. It consistently delivers a proven record of performance and reliability through state-of-the-art engineering, and documented quality control at every stage of its production. Claims that unintended discharges are anything more than negligent handling and/or manufactured lies to support an anti-gun, anti-SIG agenda are false. Furthermore, lawsuits claiming that the P320 is capable of firing without the trigger being pulled have been dismissed in courtrooms around the country. In addition, multiple plaintiffs’ so-called experts have conceded, it is not possible for the P320 to discharge unless the trigger is fully actuated.

The rhetoric is high, and we can no longer stay silent while lawsuits run their course, and clickbait farming, engagement hacking grifters continue their campaign to highjack the truth for profit. Enough is enough. From the courts of law to the court of public opinion we will combat the lies and misinformation with the truth. SIG SAUER stands behind the quality, safety, and design of all our products – especially the P320.

Industry, take notice; what’s happening today to SIG SAUER with the anti-gun mob and their lawfare tactics will happen tomorrow at another firearms manufacturer, and then another.

Today, for SIG SAUER – it ends.

Prolonged Casualty Care – “Not the Plan, But Needs a Plan”

Thursday, March 6th, 2025

In military and tactical medicine, Prolonged Casualty Care (PCC) is a prime example of something that isn’t the plan but needs a plan. The standard protocol in combat medicine follows the MARCH algorithm and the Tactical Evacuation (TACEVAC) process, ensuring casualties are stabilized and rapidly evacuated to a higher echelon of care. However, in austere environments, evacuation might be delayed or impossible due to terrain, weather, enemy threats, or logistical failures.

PCC isn’t part of the intended medical plan because the expectation is rapid evacuation but since delays are a known possibility, a plan must exist to handle extended care in the field.

Key Elements of PCC Planning

1. Resource Management: Since standard medical resupply isn’t guaranteed, planning must include rationing fluids, medications, oxygen, and blood products.

2. Patient Monitoring & Deterioration Prevention: Extended field care requires tracking vitals, managing infections, and preventing secondary injuries.

3. Prolonged Pain Management & Sedation: Casualties may need extended analgesia, sedation, or even ventilatory support.

4. Field-Expedient Interventions: Improvising solutions for issues like wound care, nutrition, and hypothermia prevention.

5. Decision-Making on Movement vs. Staying Put: Teams must plan whether to hold their position or attempt a self-evacuation.

Conclusion

PCC is a contingency rather than the primary goal, yet it requires its own protocols, training, and preparation. Failing to plan for PCC means hoping for the best instead of preparing for the worst, a dangerous mindset in operational medicine.
