Wait. Do not get them. You can get Hesco ceramic plates for under $300

I’m buying 3 sets of plates these are rated multiple shots 30-06 obviously bruised I’m sure and they are under $100 for a set.

Not shooters plate but same rated

I’m pretty sure it’s wiser to take cover than trust a plate, since a plate doesn’t come with a guarantee that the bad guy will always shoot you in the center mass 12x12 protected area. Human body is on average 7-9sqft area

Well you’re a a mod here so you’re probably online a lot, care to explain the jump-to-conclusion circle jerk faggotry regarding my prior posts? (Even though they were clearly stated)
Explain that and yeah you can have some mags also, I have more than enough to give
Not that I care either way

You're an obvious troll. You got the reaction you wanted, so why are you bitching now? You can take your mags and shove them up your ass.

And you know that the kinetic life ain’t all pretty right angles. Catch a oblique angry buzzing bee off some steel and you are going to lose some flesh over that. I completely understand the budget thing, and it’s better than nothing.....but those who have to fight for a living don’t wear steel for more than one reason. That second cut plate is weird to me. Looks like the “I hate my liver” model. I just don’t know about that.

edit to add: maybe that bottom cut is all about weight reduction?
Ceramics aren’t as fragile as people like to make them out to be. Will they last 30 years? No. Will I last 30 years? Probably not lol. I have seen dudes drop their carriers and get the Macarena Shake plates, and fall on their back hard on a single point like a rock and crack a plate but surprisingly out of thousands of soldiers I worked with I saw that maybe 3 times in weird ass situations. Ceramics held up just fine for goonin’ around theatre

Realistically it’s probably better to just have a chest rig and move faster. I have steel plates, I do pull ups and push ups w them on and it’s a bear.

Holy shit.... We agree on something.

I would wear my plates if I knew we were going to be in a prolonged firefight, i.e. holding a defensive position. For most assaults I preferred the mobility over security. The ability to shit and git is much more important in a guerilla style of combat.
