    Thumbs up 8 Unbelievable Things You Never Knew About Body Armor

    1) Not all armor is "stand-alone"! Some plates are ICW meaning "In Conjunction with". In short they need additional armor panels to do the job the are supposed to.
    We ONLY sell stand alone to ensure you are always protected.

    2) Is armor legal in Canada? Yes, you can legally own armor. Some provinces require you to have a firearms license, and others don't. Either way if you're a firearm owner, you're good to go!

    3) True fact! All of our Armor is made in the USA, using only the best materials and backed by a 5 year warranty.

    4) Not all ceramic armor is good to buy, as if you drop it, it can break internally!
    Our plates are all ceramic composite ensuring they are extremely strong and durable.
    Our plates can be dropped, however we always tell our clients... "this is literally the last thing between you and a bullet. Treat your armor with the best care you can, and it will take care of you."

    5) Weight Matters! Don't even bother looking at junky steel plates that are heavy and uncomfortable. Our armor will save you a ton. ensuring you can run faster, jump higher and finish your mission.

    6) Armor has many uses! Here are just a few.
    Keep the ASRAK in your vehicle for emergencies, Wear your ASRAK while you're at the shooting range for added protection against ricochets or the guy in the bay beside you, Hike or Run using your ASRAK as training weight

    7) ASRAK stands for Active Shooter Response Armor Kit. Just like it sounds, our effective armor is ready for what ever you put it through.

    8) What does Level 4 mean?
    Armor is rated based on stopping power. Lever 4 is the highest level of protection available in the world. Stopping everything up to .30-06 Springfield M2 armor piercing (AP) bullets.

    If something ever happened, you want that added protection! Lower levels of body armor will turn into Swiss cheese!

    Did we mention we have incredible prices on full packages of USA made?

    Checkout our ASRAK kit today! Get yours before the prices go up again.
