In this case, you’d use the rifle to hold out till you can draw the pistol.

Henry Golden Boy .22 carbine
Tom is left-handed, so a lever action works as well for him as a dedicated left-handed bolt action. His P22 is riding in a holster by Kevin Manley on a gun belt also made by Kevin.
Henry Big Boy
