The security guards are not actually employees of APS - they are contractors who work year round there - and are managed by the security dept on site - normally supplied by wackenhut or its equivelent - and although they are trained to a much higher level than any "mall guard" or rent-a-cop (they actually have to maintain physical fitness and auto firearms proficiency) - they would be no match to someone with real military spcial forces training.
The story is complete BS though in that it leads you to believe that the plant site security checkpoint is like a last line of defense - there are two more checkpoints - one that includes every person and piece of material going through an explosives monitor - that are still some ways away from the actual plant and can easily detect even a 22 shell in your pocket or lunchbox - as mentioned here its just part of the "keep the dumb in fear" campaign
