Not necessarily. And even if he does, you may be well-advised to take cover. For example, if while hiking in the woods I am surprised by a non-hunter with a shotgun, I can step behind a tree, draw my pistol, rack the slide and shout, "Hello? Who's there? I'm armed." Much better than trying to draw a chamber-loaded pistol faster than the man, who may turn out to be a plainclothes detective, can raise his gun and blow you out of your gumrubbahs.
Gunship69: "If you think you can get your weapon out, rack the slide with your jaw, and get off a good shot in less than 2.4 seconds, you must be a better man than me."
Practice, practice, practice.
