Different times. Krillin pretty much established Z fighters are as vulnerable to bullets as anyone if their guard is down. And both Vegeta and Goku took relatively pathetic attacks, with lowered guards.
I mean, nowhere does it say Saiyans are built any differently then humans, outside of a tail. It's their racial perks like zenkai and SSJ that make them different.
