RQ and CoC are deadly enough.

BRP really isn't that deadly. The ability to kill with one hit is fairly low, and in most cases restricted to impaling weapons that critical. BRP is more lethal than, say, D&D, but there are deadlier games.
One thing about hit locations and Major Wound charts is that they tend to make the game
less deadly, as they increase the chances of a character being taken out of a fight while still alive.
BTW, While you can't cut someone's nose off with a peacemaker, you can certianly shoot it off.
