If iget the testudo i can still put other plates and whatever in it bro
@booglooman92 {OH} Damn bud, those were going for 1.5 large. You balled hard
@LickMiNoodle that I did. But I’m afraid I ordered too late to be honest.
Any ideals fo 11 x 14 rifle rated plates or soft armor deals?
I couldn’t pass on that deal from safelife. They allowed you to order and do the payment plan of 5 payments..I couldn’t say no.
Yeah bro, carrier and plates isn't a quick order, even in the best of times.
Got mine last year when literally nothing was happening. Same lead time.
Absolutely 110% pay for anti-spall coating. If you aren't going to, don't bother to wear the plates, at that point just get some soft pistol plates instead. Just get it.
I'll get them because it's worth the security, just dang. An they are out of that militia helmet. Also....which ones the anti spall?
It's a coating for the steel plates
The build up coat i imagine?
It keeps the fragments of the jacket from ripping out your jugular.
Yes
If you don't get it, you still die when they shoot you often times.
I gather ....you could make something to go around your neck and allow for the shrapnel to Ricochet off your face gear.
Or just ricochet off the rim too
The build up is so cheap relatively it isn't worth trying to figure a way around it.
Ik, it's just my brain is hardwired to look for ways around these types of things
I’m going to laugh at the poor sob that’s wearing level 4 and I place a 4000ftlb round in their chest.
30mm Vulcan?
Good luck stopping that without a barricade.
Sleep time ✌️
Night
@Creedmoor 225 eldm out of a 300 winmag. Nasty fucks about 4000ftlb at 2950.
Nice
I'll have to look at AP loads for my 7mm rem mag
Resize Russian 7.62x54r work great. You can size the bullet to 7mm/284 and make a long high bc ap bullet.
@booglooman92 {OH} That's a good deal for sure, and I hope you can get them. If not, I have a spare set of plates and kevlar from a vest I cut to fit into a PC. @O/K/ie Voluntaryist, putting a notebook in your PC in front of the plate should catch spalling
A notebook isnt going to help much with spall. I mean in theory it will but actuality its gonna shred it with little to no effect
Hm. I've been recommended that but never put it to test, you could very well be right. I think I'm gonna look on the youtubes to see if it's been tried
I mean you can put the steel plate in a Kevlar bag but that method was replaced after the better coatings were made
If you really want you could put the Kevlar bag around your build up coat steel plate
I have an old flak jacket I plan to cannibalize in the next week and install in my plate carrier.
These are the steel plates I have. There's a coating on them, but it's a base coat
Some armor is better than nothing look into getting something to catch that spalling tho or sell it and upgrade
As a last resort you could get a couple cans of pickup spray on bed liner from an auto parts store and build it up yourself. Like I said though, last resort.
Duct tape wrap the plates
I have battle steel ceramics. Those steel plates are backups
Global ordinance has 200 round packs of 223 69gr Sierra matchking HPBT buy one get one free brings a nice round down to about 47 cents if anyone’s been looking
Ouch my asshole.
