I realize in many ways this is a hypothetical exercise, but can anyone do the apologetics that would actually put a shooter and swordsman in a situation similar to this one? If I were approaching a swordsman or he was approaching me, I imagine I would have drawn long ago... unless he had the drop on me in which case it would seem to be a moot point, gun or no gun (hell, even sword or no sword with the right martial artistist).
As Doc Hudson pointed out, carrying large edged weapons is basically illegal in nearly all contexts... so if we run into an aggressive man carrying a sword, more likely a deranged one than skilled swordsman.
Is there any practical possibility of the two running into each other, is what I'm asking?
