You can't - if the guy has a finger on a trigger or inches away from a trigger, the marshall simply cannot take the risk he might activate it.
And, in combat situations, with a handgun, even hitting center body mass is not a given. A lot of cops, good on the range, miss completely from even 15 feet away under the stress of firing on another human being.
