The actual definition of this word refers to a pistol clearing (being drawn from) it's leather holster. Got started back in the days when police officers and federal agents still used leather duty holsters

Police Officer 2: No shit! What happened?

Police Officer 1: Shots fired, he killed the guy. Apparently he pulled a knife on Chuck
