I don't buy a motionless guy with his hands raised is a threat to two cops with guns drawn and leveled. In practice we could draw and shoot a target 25 feet away in .5 of a second. With their guns leveled reaction time would be a tine fraction of that. Around here cops with the drop on a guy with three guns waited to shoot him until he leveled the gun to shoot them which is a much more reasonable standard.


A half second draw out of a cop holster would be uber. Bob Vogel would blush. It's more like 1.5 seconds for LE average then add about a .75 sec reaction time to figure out you're in the Shiite in the first place. Pretty sure my old ass can cross 20 feet in 2.25 seconds.
