Great article.

I might point out, however, that we non-LEOs may be more likely to encounter longer range (15-30 ft) scenarios. Criminals may use different tactics for shooting cops. They may rely more on the surprise since they know the officers are armed. For example, when pulled over to the side of the road, the criminals might wait until the police officer approaches within five feet before suddenly attacking. On the other hand, a homeowner investigating a bump in the night might encounter an intruder/attacker from longer distances--across a living room or down a hallway, for example.
