Which is why a retention holster should be considered standard.
A standard holster has no locking mechanism - a retention holster does. They come in multiple levels as well - and many manufacturers have different nuances. So its like the difference between sneaking a wallet out of someone's back pocket - and sneaking out the wallet - and the chain that is attached to a front belt loop.
LE use retention holsters for this exact reason. Sure - the rare case is that they get into a tussle with someone who goes for their gun. The fact is retention gives you the ability to not lose your firearm. Besides - if you let someone get that close - you damned near deserve to get your firearm taken away.
