If the cops were battling a guy with a sword, and both cops got shot, that must be one HELL of a sword. If you aren't close enough to your enemy, press a button and it fires bullets too? They sure didn't have THOSE in "SHOGUN."

Or is it that the cops were so busy shooting that they didn't realize that shooting in every which direction might include themselves?
