Glad you survived. Agree to keep one in chamber also.
glad you're ok, wouldnt share too much on the interweb like others havesaid
It's feet not yards.30 yards away you could have a sandwich before you had to shoot.
haha... woops... you're correct...
bite me, it was a late night last night...
...hind sight 20/20 corrective action has been taken. And the prayer is in to never be faced in such a position again...but just in case)
Who would have though a knife would come out on top of a gun fight
I always carry, with one in the chamber while out and about, at home, in the john, always. If you keep it chambered and on your person there is no worry about the kiddos.
But,hey,on TV and in the movies, they ALWAYS rack the slide first...
LEO training has recently increased this to 30 FEET.
And, I would assume that was under controlled conditions. For example, they set it up where they had a bad guy and an officer, who knew what was going to happen and someone with a stopwatch said "go". We tried some of these drills when I went through the academy.
I think it would take longer to react for an average person who is just standing around minding his own business with NO warning to see an attack coming, have the presence of mind to recognize the threat, to decide to shoot and then execute the draw and shoot. Plus the fact they are drawing from concealment and the LEO test was probably from a uniformed officer with a holster on a gunbelt like we did.
I ALWAYS keep one in the chamber. My 2 cents
I have a bayonet duct taped to my Sig just in case I get in a similar situation. 
If your gonna keep a defensive tool about keep it "hot"..... "Hey, wait a second while I find and load my gat" just won't cut it.
