We finally arrived at a sane, honest answer from a gun guy; only took 23 hours.
You know this is not true; you know my answer was completely same and completely honest.
You just didn't like it because it didn't fit your narrative.
Tell us: If someone is shooting at you, are you counting his rounds to see if he reloads at 10 or 20 or 30?
Can you even tell if he reloaded or simply paused?
And finally: If you plan to charge him during a reload, wouldn't you prefer to have a gun?
Of course you don't have answers - these are but a few of the particulars you didn't consider when you presented your false dichotomy.
