Ballistic Plates Incoming

Just wondered about the pre-order and after. Am I correct in assuming that the price goes up after the pre-order is over? I have some people interested but need to give them the correct information. Some of them are slower on the uptake than molasses on Hoth in February.

We can’t control the factory but we will try to keep the price the same, even after the pre-order. We do not have the capability to hold large amounts of inventory right now so this pre-order is the best way of guaranteeing a set of plates right off the bat.
 
just FYI you might want to adjust teh Pair + ASPIS Simplex Carrier Package: 299.99 price as its showing for more on your website
 
Any shipping information on plate shipping ? I know it not the same for all canada but could be a deal breaker if is the same price as the steel plate itself

Thanks for the posting!!!

I am wanting a set of Level III+ plates...your shots show they stopped penetration from both 3 rounds of 5.56 and 1 round of .308 (if I read that correct, all shots were done to the same plate?)
You also stated that the 5.56 did some spalling and the .308 did a significant amount...did the anti spalling coating fail to "catch" it all OR did you just mean there was a lot of spalling but it was all caught/retained within the plate?!

Thanks!!!

Pre-order on the way!!!

You beat me to it!

I wanted to ask the exact same question!

Yes all shots where done to the same plate. We actually hit it with three .223s and two .308s but we only drew attention to the most notable impacts. The .223 round in the center of the plate managed to catch the majority of the spall and what wasn't caught was redirected back out and not towards the edges. The .308 round in the top corner generated significant spalling and while some of it was caught a large amount of it managed to delaminate the coating form the plate and send some spalling out the sides. However we have to be honest and the number of .223 rounds we hit the plate with before the .308 might have caused some of this delamination to occur in the area prior to the impact of the .308

Sounds about right/fair. Think you can as them to "beef up" the coating slightly on the steel models at all? Before the order comes through? Or maybe shoot a set while in a basic carrier and see if that helps catch any of it?

Spalling if flying up towards your neck/face can be very dangerous/lethal on its own right!!!

To add...any tests coming for the helmet? Some fit/wearing pictures would be great too!!!

We didn't do any testing on these ones due to the sheer quantity of testing reports on the helmets we where given. We will be testing one of the helmets from the first shipment and we will post photos showing the tests and how it looks on an actual person.

price of the UHMWPE armor went up as well from 359 to 399?

The price increase was due to us moving the base product from a single plate to a pair of plates. This meant that the discounts started for packages above that such as a full set of plates. The US vs CAD mixup was only for the steel. Once again we apologize for this, and we will change it on the first post.

Silicon Carbide Level IV

Took a hit right on the edge from a .30-06. The backface deformation was larger at 21mm on the plate, however the plate managed to catch all of the spalling even at the far edge.

Where did all the ceramic go? Did you knock them off the plate?

Also it seems like they arent true 10x12 plates as it appears theres a inch of padding around the plate so you're really looking at a 8x10 of protection.
