So while he is on the map screen and while his clone is stil counting down for a "pick me up" just leave battle. That's it. Simple. Make sure you do it while the timer is still counting down or you will have lost the fitting. If he got a headshot, the clone would have been terminated - no chance of revival - and the guy woud have lost his Thales'.
It doesn't matter if you get a headshot. I can confirm that I have headshot some players with a bolt pistol or combat rifle and they still don't get cloned. Because of this, I made it a habit of emptying my clip into their bodies regardless of the headshot to make absolutely sure that their officer fits are destroyed before they have a chance to frantically pull the plug on their router.

It depends on if you can pull the plug on time. Remember that the server, not the PS3 client, is the one that determines the fate of your ragged body laying on the ground. If the server saw the player destroy your clone before you pulled the plug on the PS3, you lost that gear. This is why we encourage all players to double tap as often as possible especially if the target is known to wear officer gear.
This is also why weapons like the mass driver, forge gun, flaylock pistols, remote explosives, and grenades are the weapons of choice in events like the Million Clone Challenge.

Agreed.

Actually, I have been blown up countless time by forge gunners and there was not a single time when I was given a bleedout state. It was instant CLONE TERMINATED every time.
