I had a good friend who had trained extensively in martial arts. One time, he was being trained on how to disarm someone with a gun. The first thing the teacher told them was you had to be within about five feet of the armed person. Someone asked the teacher what would happen if you were farther away. The teacher answered very matter of factly "You get shot."
