I can't recall anyone ever pushing a revolver out of battery during a struggle at bad breath distance.
I've not seen a semi auto that could be fired - twice - from in an overcoat pocket either.
I do recall a Red Flag excercise at Nellis AFB in the 1980's. A bunch of "antiquated" Northrop F-5's armed with "simple" heat seeking missles merged with a couple of flights of technically superior F-15's armed with all their goodies. The F-5's ate the F-15's up. IIRC analysts scratched their heads wondering how inferior aircraft could get a shot at such high tech aircraft as the F-15.
Simple answer, it's the Indian not the arrow.
YMMV. Void where prohibited ect ect.....
