As an outsider I find it a little puzzling as to why someone would spend up to $1000 on a quality handgun, several hundred dollars in training and certification for a CWP and not spend a little more on a decent holster/spare mag carrier.

As a police officer I am wondering why the PSU police did not move in as soon as the pistol became visible in his pocket. Is Oregon an open carry state?

As for the tasers, well here we use them to overcome manual assaultative force. Once a weapon, edged or even blunt force, comes into play it is time to call on the services of Mr Glock. And that is a policy that some in our country just do not understand.
