It seems that unless you are VERY alert, you can't defeat an opponent who has the jump on you and nothing to fear.

I live in a state that probably contains half-a-million or more scope-sighted rifles and shotguns. If somebody out there just wants to backshoot me tomorrow while I'm sitting on the porch, minding my own business, there's not bupkis I can do about it. Hence, I try to live my life in such a fashion that folks are unlikely to want to shoot me in the grape out of the blue.
The pistol I carry is for far more likely scenarios: muggings, rapes, carjackings, home invasions, what-have-you. All of these scenarios have a confrontational component, and happen to normal everyday folk a lot more often than ambush murders.
