You know... I wanted one... but, I just crossed 416s off of my list.

Okay I mean you can find them for like, 4,500, sheesh guys

Yeah, I refuse to pay for than 2k for any kind of rifle. And even then, I don't wanna pay more than 1k, lmao

...haha

So uh, I meant to ask in the Facebook group but for some reason didnt.
Do those "anti spall" sleeves actually work on plates?

my wasr cost me 600

I might make the sacrifice for a BCM though when I get back of the desert place.

BUY CERAMIC

Call me a shill because I am

My AK cost me... 650 I think.

>limiting yourself based on price and not understanding capabilities and buying for mission

Steel armor sucks. That’s it.

I won't settle for anything less but if worse comes to worse I'll pick someone's ar500 armor off them

I know I know. I literally saw that post talking about it like the day after I paid for a spartan armor systems plate package.

Well I've looked at capabilities, and the BCMs are rather nice...

Yeah... I made a dumb decision and bought steel. I would like to upgrade to ceramics down the line though.

Wish the Army had let me keep mine...

That's why I was asking about the spell sleeves.

I see they have a coating already, which from what I saw MIGHT help.?

BCM’s are pretty nice.

They are ok

But I'd get the coating

Just... coat the entire plate in flex seal

The coating will stop like, one round center mass at directly 90 degrees from immediately killing you.

Wow what a deal

Add duct tape and then flex than spall coating

The poors can improvise!

Fuck I wish I saved my anti-steel rant from a few months a go when a literal AR500 shill was trying to be smart

Sure, the steel will hold up. But the person won't. Hahaha

Honestly I had no idea what I was doing. I just new I needed something rather than nothing

what's wrong with steel plates?

just curious

I run steel anyways, because it's what I have and it's good for weight training.

Steel spalls, causing shrapnel basically.

The spall from the round will end up in your chin/neck from what I gathered

That’s problem 1 out of like 30

Just buy an eod suit for $18,000

I've heard you can use truck bed liner to coat it

lol

Spalling. Steel is also typically velocity penetrable as well, meaning that with more velocity, the more a round can hurt it.

Truck bed liner doesn’t do that it’s *literally* a meme
