    Jesus. Steel plates are never an acceptable choice of armour and it boggles my mind that retailers still market and sell it as such.
    Money talks, BS walks.

    DO NOT expect me to hold items without prior discussion or payment.

    My only interest would be that these cost as much as training plates. If you’re buying something to go back and forth with someone, go ceramic.

    It has to start somewhere. It has to start sometime.

    Yeah. Steel armour is sh*t

    Anyone who knows anything about armour will tell you to never buy them. Even if they stop a round the spalling is likely to ventilate your throat and arms and you'll bleed to death anyways.

    Buy quality armour or don't buy armour.

    The spalling alone will probably incapacitate you and in the worst case scenario, kill you.

    Anti spalling treatment is not 100% guaranteed so keep that in mind. If you're seriously considering armour, look at ceramic plates.
