Even better to use modern pistol with safety switch.That's a complete failure on the officer's part. Standard practice for Japanese police is to keep the top chamber empty so the hammer isn't resting on a loaded chamber.
Standard issue for Japanese police is New Nambu M60 model revolver, which doesn't have a safety to my knowledge.

Even ignoring the safety standard and what not, that's some slow-ass police if a mere house-wife can easily snatch their gun like that.
