Did you wear front/back/sides or what?

2018-12-02 05:54:22 UTC  

front and back swimmers cut 10x12

2018-12-02 05:54:33 UTC  

approx .6 inch thick

2018-12-02 05:54:40 UTC  

Ahh, yeah I find the back plates cause the most trouble

2018-12-02 05:54:59 UTC  

wearing front plate only will make you feel off-balance and like a hunchback

2018-12-02 05:55:12 UTC  

It's a tradeoff

2018-12-02 05:55:49 UTC  

if I was in afg I would definitely wear plates, but on the street in nig-town, no

2018-12-02 05:56:22 UTC  

bruh beat copping nig-town is like the one place you'd DEFINITELY want hard armor

2018-12-02 05:56:37 UTC  

I disagree

2018-12-02 05:56:40 UTC

2018-12-02 05:56:41 UTC  

If nothing else than for the multihit capabilities

2018-12-02 05:56:50 UTC  

I pull guns off nigs a lot and to encounter a rifle is rare

2018-12-02 05:57:34 UTC  

Fair. They prefer GLAWKS

2018-12-02 05:57:50 UTC  

actually tbh, I will rarely pull an actual quality piece off a nig

2018-12-02 05:57:59 UTC  

for someone who hasn't worn them around all day actually doing things, it sucks, not only the heat, but the back and shoulder strain

2018-12-02 05:58:08 UTC  

most of the time it is something like a lorcin or raven or at best a taurus

2018-12-02 05:58:18 UTC  

"at best a taurus"

2018-12-02 05:58:23 UTC  

wew

2018-12-02 05:58:25 UTC  

Rough

2018-12-02 05:58:31 UTC  

^ that is it actually you hit the point

2018-12-02 05:58:36 UTC  

most guys dont wear soft armor

2018-12-02 05:58:40 UTC  

because it is hot as fuck

2018-12-02 05:58:56 UTC  

15 degree increase in core body temp

2018-12-02 05:59:00 UTC  

increases your body temp like 10-15 degrees

2018-12-02 05:59:03 UTC  

yes

2018-12-02 05:59:05 UTC  

Unfortunately breathability negatively impacts ballistic protection.

2018-12-02 05:59:13 UTC  

that's why mil guys want plates only

2018-12-02 05:59:18 UTC  

^

2018-12-02 05:59:22 UTC  

because you can breathe in between your plates

2018-12-02 05:59:27 UTC  

but the soft armor wraps tight

2018-12-02 05:59:33 UTC  

plate carriers for mobility and breathability

2018-12-02 06:00:04 UTC  

There is... something of a middle ground.

2018-12-02 06:00:14 UTC  

I've seen it in action too

2018-12-02 06:00:25 UTC  

at the end of the day, I feel safer with 3A than plates for my specific purpose

2018-12-02 06:00:39 UTC  

Now don't go HAM but just hear me out.

2018-12-02 06:00:46 UTC  

Inconel chain mail.

2018-12-02 06:01:04 UTC  

Sounded like the most retarded shit possibly ever.

2018-12-02 06:01:28 UTC  

But the properties of Inconel make it surprisingly effective as armor

2018-12-02 06:01:56 UTC  

See, most migs carry handguns primarily for the fact they are concealable. If your rival nig comes by your hood, you want to be able to pull it out of your waistband and shoot back asap
