why are plate carriers with class IV plates selling out this fast? I was told on the MSM's that the country is doing fine.
they make civilians submit a notarized affidavit? no thanks.
ESAPI/SAPI etc is ceramic. That is important to note that they are tested to the standard, but NOT certified. While I'd have faith in them, it may be an issue for an "issued" piece of equipment. NIJ is the preferred standard, but not perfect. As with the MA handgun testing, multiple sets of each model must be submitted.
Often when this kind of armor shows up for this price, its from a government contract that was canceled, or has excess. I picked up a set from another company for $300. A few weeks later, the exact same plates are now $550 a set. Find a price that fits your budget, and jump on them when you find the right ones.
feckin' gone. damn.
though i just spent $700 on tires and rims this morning for dedicated snows... so it's not like i could have bought these.
