Ballistic Plates Incoming

[AITacticalSolutions]

As far as I am aware NIJIII+ and NIJIII++ are not official designations. NIJ officially only tests for NIJIII and NIJIV. The III+ designation was introduced to act as an intermediary between the two that wasn't official and it is used by manufacturer's to indicate that it should stop some threats that the standard NIJ III does not. I think it was specifically in reference to some newer and higher velocity loads of 5.56. The plate was only officially tested for NIJ III by NIJ as III+ doesn't exist even though the manufacturer suggests it exceeds standard NIJIII spec.

You are correct, the only difference between level III and level III+ is that III+ will stop 5.56 green tip armor penetrators.

Got my order yesterday, plates are great. Wish i had ordered a large helmet instead of xl

We are happy you are satisfied with the plates. If the helmet is too small, you can send it back and we can exchange it for the XL. If you are interested it will be around 2 weeks at the earliest as we are sold out of most of the helmets and we are waiting for the next shipment to arrive.

Do you guys have actual store or just online orders?

We mostly do only online orders. However if you are in the area and want to check things out with your own eyes we can set up a time for you to come in and do that.

Happy with the plates, but was wondering if you will be bringing in level 4 steel plates or 11x14 steel plates?

Why? If there was even a level 4 steel plate, its going to be at least a half inch thick and weigh over 10lbs.

We can definitely try and bring in steel in 11x14 but the earliest we could bring them in would be in about two months. Also they don't manufacture the steel in lvl IV. We are actually currently changing over to purchasing from an American company who has agreed to match the prices that we are currently selling at. More details to come, but they are the ones manufacturing the low profile pistol vests and rifle rated backpacks.

Well it would be pretty cheap for lvl 4 and if you're looking for a workout lvl 4 steel will most certainly get you sweating.

Also we are working on potentially bringing in soft armor inserts. The prices are as follows;

UHMWPE Lvl IIIa
price per pair: 149.99

Aramid (kevlar) Lvl IIIa
price per pair: 279.99

Let us know if this is something you guys would be interested in.
