At the risk of sounding like I’m just bashing the competition, the main difference between S.W.A.T.. and other publications is the credibility/experience of the authors who write for us. The hostage taking incident that took place at the Mexican Consulate yesterday (11/9/04) is a good example.

An LAPD Metro sergeant ended the incident with a single shot from a .223 to the hostage-takers brain housing group. Veteran LAPD officer and S.W.A.T. staff writer Scott Reitz trained the sergeant.

I can’t begin to express how proud I am to be associated with the likes of Scott, Pat, Louis, Clint, Jeff and the other professionals who take time off from their real jobs to write for S.W.A.T.
