Rifle Protection You Can Wear Under a Jacket
01
WEIGHT
3.9 lbs Per Plate, 8 lbs All In
That is the vest and both plates together. Most rifle plate setups start around 12 lbs total. This one is under 9, which is the difference between armor you wear when you need it and armor you actually wear every day.
02
CONSTRUCTION
Silicon Carbide and Dyneema
Silicon carbide is the strike face. It is one step below diamond on the hardness scale, and it breaks the round apart. Behind it sits a Dyneema backer that catches what is left. Two materials, two jobs, in a plate that can be concealed with the right clothing.
03

Stops 5.56 Green Tip
Green tip is a steel-core round that punches through standard Level III plates. These plates are rated Level III+, which is the tier that specifically covers it. Also stops 7.62 NATO, .308, and every handgun round below.

Per IIIA table
Level III+ stops rifle rounds. These are hard plates in a concealed vest. They do not stop armor-piercing rounds. For that you need Level IV. Here is how each protection level compares.

Why we use silicon carbide ā
10
YEARSTen years of cover.
UHMWPE does not absorb moisture like Kevlar. Your panels will not degrade in humidity, sweat, or rain. That is why the warranty is ten years and not five.
Questions before you buy.
The vest adjusts from Small to 2XL. Loosen or tighten it to fit over what you are wearing.
Yes. Body armor is legal in all 50 states for civilians. Some states restrict ownership for people with felony convictions. Check your local laws.
Level IIIA stops handgun rounds (up to .44 Magnum) and uses soft panels. Level III+ stops rifle rounds and uses hard plates in a carrier. Level IV stops armor-piercing rifle rounds and also uses hard plates.
Take the two plates out of the vest. Machine wash and dry the vest. Wipe the plates with a damp cloth. Never machine wash the plates.
One concealed vest and two Level III+ plates. One plate sits at the front, one at the back. Each plate is 10 by 12 inches and weighs 3.9 lbs.
US orders ship fast, with free shipping. UK and Canada orders ship out in 3 business days. Canadian customers pay shipping at checkout.
