Bryan's usually overstated on durability, but that is basically his bigger selling point. His weaponry can be no showed by a good number of things, his strength isn't that amazing, and his speed is easily outmatched by most any 5/day or so on melee. That Paul thing doesn't match up to him not worrying about gunfire or a helicopter crashing into him in the same game.
Not to mention, the hype there on Big Boss's weaponry as advanced is pretty much laughable. Especially on the M47, because it's literally:

You know, a literal real life 1970's weapon. Not to mention, he wasn't even able to stop Peacewalker through weaponry, and most of that stuff was only ever stopped by attacking the obvious weakness AI pods and getting into them.
