From what I remember from reading articles when this happened and also reading the fairly lenthy Wikipedia article, the agents appeared to be poorly trained for this type of situation and that the bullets used were old fashion round nose bullets that didn't do as much damage as a modern bullet would do.

The article that I read stated "Toxicology tests showed that the abilities of Platt and Matix to fight through multiple traumatic gunshot wounds and continue to battle and attempt to escape were not achieved through any chemical means. Both of their bodies were drug-free at the time of their deaths."




From what I have read this is correct. Poorly trained and the old style ammo did not help.

Their ability to fight through was in fact mental preparedness to take hits. The belief that a hit does not mean you are dead and can still fight on. One was ex-military (Army I think).ost people are taught, by one means or another, that if shot you will die so give up the will to live when shot. The military train people to know that if shot keep fighting or you will die. Comes back to the psych side of things.

The plastic fantastic side arms came about because of the Munich Olympics. Mainly the need for a side arm without a conventional safety.
