#2 OK, we all know how the RAB "crossfires" work, and when they run across miscreants they use the "encounter", so is "shootout" the RAB term for a straight-up hit?

#4 A "shootout" can occur during a "encounter" or during a "Crossfire". The difference between encounters and crossfires are just as you've described, with crossfire's happening after an "arrest", "questioning", "confession" and "road trip at 2AM" looking for a "arms cache". Encounters are when you don't want to take the time to fill out the forms to check out the shutter gun.
