Well put Tully, no one knows how they would react to small arms fire until it happens...cops don't have crystal balls...they aren't superman with xray vision....and a popular motto among those that carry a patrol rifle is: I carry my pistol to fight my way to my rifle...
The Deputy fought for his life, unfortunately he was fighting a guy that had him out gunned and prolly did not care if he lived...
