    Firearms identification is not rocket science! What was the caliber of the projectile removed from the SS agent’s vest? If it was a buckshot pellet, there should be 8 more somewhere, so it wasn’t buckshot. What was the caliber of the shooter’s handgun? Was it the same as the SS service weapons? I suspect the only reason this information is being hidden is that we have a friendly fire incident, and nobody wants to admit that.
