Great armor for the money

These plates are light wait, comfortable, and have a practical application. They are a little on the thicker side of plates, but offer the best bang for your buck. Great for prepared citizens, Tacmed, SWAT, or first responders.

Well constructed plate. Packaged very well for shipping.
Price point and protection level and quality could not be matched no matter where I looked. Add the longevity of PBA for another plus.
I was concerned that the 1.1” thickness wouldn’t fit in my ferroconcepts slickster.
But it did, albeit snug, it fit and is secure.
Completing another part of my ‘kit’ felt great especially at the price and quality

Never

They are made with the customer in mind ? I’m 6 ft 185 lbs my wife is 5.7 and 130 lbs and we both feel very comfortable in them! Easy to install accessories on them! Well a little work involved but that’s ok!
We purchased the vests as well as the plates.
My wife and I love the pease of mind they give us! Just hope we never know actually how good of a product they are! If you get my meaning!

Light is Fast

Light weight = Speed. SPEED is security. These plates are great. Not level 4 stop everything, but light enough to provide protection in movement. Highly recommend.
