Body Pistols vs. Battledress

The question got asked how does the body pistol fare vs. Battle dress?

I checked it against classic trav combat:
At close range (less than 1 meter) a person with body pistol-1 can hit a
person wearing the stuff on a roll of 12. (assuming dex is average)

At less than 5 meters a person with pistol-2 can hit someone wearing the
stuff on a roll of 12.

At medium range it would require pistol-13 to hit with a rolled 12.
