Of course the steel are lvl III+ but for on the move that should be adequate
Yeah but shrapnel in your jugular
Nahh the coating eliminates it well. And it is basically bed liner. So buy a can from wherever and reapply during down periods if need be.
That shit is all kinds of bomb resistant too for all kinds of other applications
I’ll go with the banshee plate carrier and order off of tactical gear so that I can use that gift card
Solid choice
@Recapdrake I agree with you, spalling worries merry
Wtf was that
Jihad @MulberryMojo
Level IV plates require a 4ft drop prior to testing per NIJ standards.
Eh, weight is a big thing and if you get PE ceramic composite thickness is not a factor any more and spalling is non-existent
And multi hit plates are a thing too
Seen PE ceramic take 5 hits of AP 308
And I'm a huge proponent of people spending their money on expensive thingsnif that's what they want. Haha

Buy nice
III+ is not a thing. It's something AR500 made up
That's also true, it's not NIJ, it's their own testing they've come up with to show that it will stop threats greater than level iii
It jumps from 3a to IV right?
3a to 3 to 4
I’m talking by nij
NIJ does not test for 3+
Yes its inhouse testing to determine the armor can take greater than level 3 threats, as I said
A lot of armor companies do inhouse testing and then pay for NIJ testing
There are also independent labs that test that are not NIJ
The non NIJ certification made me sell off some PE plates that bought without doing the research. Then bought the ceramics for what a guy paid for my PEs
You'll see more companies forego NIJ testing to keep costs down
Depends what you are comfortable with
There are other independent testing labs
NIJ testing literally costs 10s of thousands of dollars
And most armor companies do not produce the volume to mitigate that cost
Hence why their plates are 2-300 bucks instead of 100
With the new NIJ Standards many companies are just waiting to get there plates tested on the new standard instead of wasting the money on the old standard

Source on that?
Okay but a source?
Didn't find anything. At all. Even going past the first page.
Nice nice what did you order
