Their original successes in this incident were more a result of their superior fire power and the use of body armor. Police arrived with handguns and faced fully automatic weapons. I do not believe the element of surprise had anything to do with it.
The Newhall incident resulted in police departments switching from revolvers to semi-automatics.
This incident resulted in police departments issuing AR15s in stead of the shotgun to their patrol officers.
Just some observations!
