The whole point is the element of surprise. When your gun is behind you, and the assailant comes up from behind, they have the element of surprise. It’s not like it’s hidden, it’s right there for the grabbing. If it’s locked in, then they themselves couldn’t retrieve their own firearm. Every lesson and trainer I’ve seen or talked to carry appendix. Not only it is under cover, in a bear hug you can still grab it. You have the advantage. And in a situation where every second counts, you need every chance you can get.
Except most women that carry are used to having eyes in the backs of their heads- more aware of their surroundings because we were raised as XX bio females-- we KNOW whatnits like to be prey
