Level IIIA Backpack Body Armor Custom Fitted for the Viktos Upscale Sling (2.0 and 3.0)

Designed to fit seamlessly into the Viktos Upscale2 and Upscale3 Sling Bags, this lightweight, and flexible backpack armor will provide you with discreet protection. We use the same ballistic material in these panels as the material used in our soft body armor vest for law enforcement.

Hook And Loop Insert

Designed to fit seamlessly into the Viktos Upscale2 and Upscale3 Sling Bags without losing the hook-and-loop feature for a modular holster. The design mimics the interior of the bag with a full field of velcro on the front, so adding the bulletproof panel won't cause you to lose any functionality. We use the same ballistic material in these panels as the material used in the standard insert and in our soft body armor vests for law enforcement.

Perfect size bag for church

The bag from Viktos and the recommended soft armor plate are perfect for church. The bag holds my Bible, bleeder kit, spare mag, etc, while the soft armor plate fits perfect in the main compartment. The plate fits secure and is very light weight. The bag can be slung to my front with ease and I feel assured it will offer protection against small arms fire, should I need it. I would highly recommend this setup for anyone wanting an armored discreet carry system.

Upscale3 armored bundle

Hard to beat. All the room you would need for a light day pack. Great truck bag. Only complaint is the water bottle side not being zippered all the way down, but it’s something I can live with. Will definitely be ordering more 12x15 soft armor backpack inserts for multiple other bags for the kids, absolutely top notch. Impressed with the quality, I see these outliving the decade old 5.11 packs that I’m slowing retiring and finding new replacements for.

Also drink pocket is able to hold a 18oz yeti rambler cup for any wondering minds

Great bag and armor

Love the bag, comfortably carries everything I need and looks great. The body armor fits snug and doesn’t bulk out the bag but provides me with a peace of mind while off duty.

Viktos Upscale Sling Insert but for Eberlestock H31 Bandit

This fits in the bladder pouch of the H31 Bandit perfectly. Might be snug to use with the bladder but it has not arrived yet. Its just a few inches short of the top of the bag. No complaints, the product is great in my EDC bag, I feel better knowing its there. Customer service was also top tier helping me with my order so I could travel.
