At what distances were these drills conducted?
Not too many felons with serious intent announce they are going to shank you from across the street. When the attack with a contact weapon erupts at close-quarters, you basically only have two initial choices. Either close and engage utilizing integrated empty hand techniques or explode off the X and create/maintain separation. Unless you are a whole lot quicker than your assailant, you'll never get the distance to stop and fire from a stable shooting base.
