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

I see

Yeah that doesn’t work

I said flex seal as a joke..... but it might actually work...

I’ve seen people with bandaged faces due to steel

Fuck I’ve seen people with bandages from shooting steel targets, let alone getting shot wearing one

Well fuck me and Callsign apparently 🤦‍♂️

Yeah, when I bought my plates I was unaware of the issues with steel.

Nvm I was bit off

I have Hoplite Lvl IV swimmers on the way.

What did that run you?
Are those ceramic?

I have ESAPIS, hescos and steels for workouts

I believe $299 for front and back.

I want ESAPIS

And they’re ceramic.

Well fuck.

That's literally only 60 more than I paid.

ESAPIS are the shit tbh

Granted I have side plates too

I don't run side plates. They just rub you raw and get annoying.

Lymon is a good guy but he'll eventually cave to politicians or get scandled out of office IF he evens wins governor

Lyman got shit on but it’s all false.

Ehhhhh

Some of it was false. Some of it was shady. Some of it was handled poorly.

Either way, it’s just a distributor, they don’t even make armor

Uh oh

Basically don’t say the b-word
