Re: BODY ARMOR Group Buy..........
What is the thickness?
Do they come with AR500 certs?
What is the "coating"? Is it a kevlar weave?
Definitely interested if it stays at the current price range.
Thanks

Re: BODY ARMOR Group Buy..........
Out of curiosity is this a group buy from ar500armor.com? I bought some plates from them, they were good to deal with.

Re: BODY ARMOR Group Buy..........
No. It is another group I am working with.
The Plate carrier will range in price from 125 for a straight, no frills low profile, to a upgraded, molle version with side plates for 175 roughly.
The steel plates ar an AR500 brinell steel plate 3/8 inch thick.
The coating is a proprietary coating the plate manufacturer uses to cover the plate.
The beauty with these plates is that they will take multiple hits without failure. Chances are you will crap yourself and have a failure before these plates do.

Re: BODY ARMOR Group Buy..........
Roughly 20-30 of the 100 sets are spoken for. I had some guys who were waitlisted from the first GB. The rest are open for this buy. Our first group buy plates will start to ship this week and should all be shipped by the end of next week. Once all are shipped and received, I will open up the buy. The buy will remain open until all 100 sets are gone.
If you have some friends looking to get in on this buy, tell them now. I don't think this buy will be open for to long. The last buy was over in two days, 62 sets.

Re: BODY ARMOR Group Buy..........
I'm in for one set.
What are the finalized prices?
Also do you have a link so that I can read up on their proprietary coating? Is it kevlar weave?

Re: BODY ARMOR Group Buy..........
Count me in for one front, back, side plates coated with a carrier. Checking with friends and family to see if they want some. Keep me in the loop. Thanks for putting this together.

Re: BODY ARMOR Group Buy..........
What NIJ rating are these, anyway?
Or if unrated, what is their alleged limit?
