Good and bad
X-draws are somewhat better in a vehicle, especially with a seatbelt/shoulder strap in place. High ride canted seemed to work well. The same rig isn't worth a da## if you get into a wrestling match. Bad guy got one of my x-partners 6" revolver while they were rolling around on the ground. Barrel snagged between shirt buttons and went off. His heart followed the bullet out the center of his back.
Rare occurrence I know but I quit carrying my 6" python in a cross draw. This all happened in the early 70's.
If somebody has the intent to get your weapon and use it against you and he does get his hands on you there is going to be trouble. I'd just as soon not let him grab the weapon and have it instantly in a firing position.
