OUR PRODUCTS

No vest is truly bulletproof unfortunately. The vests and carriers that we do offer though ensure that under the proper conditions, they are more than capable of saving your life at the indicated protection level.

Protection levels are set by the NIJ (National Institute of Justice) and indicate what caliber rounds you will be protected against and at which range/velocity. For a more detailed explanation of these protection levels, you can see our article on this topic here, or visit the NIJ’s website here.

Body vests are anti ballistic gear that have armor plates directly sewn or attached onto the vest which are usually more easily worn under other clothing making them concealable and can be easier to put on or remove. Plate carriers are vests that have slots for body plates so that you are able to determine the protection level you need. Not all plate carriers come with plates and unless you already own plates you may have to purchase them separately.

We work with a large number of suppliers and have many products that we sell but cannot always make available on our site. If there is anything in particular you are looking for, please contact us here and we will do our best to help you find it, even if it’s not from us.

SHIPPING

Shipping costs can vary depending on the location and type of item. Most of our protective vests and gear will ship for free unless stated otherwise.

We are unable to ship most hard armor and vests outside of the US due to ITAR (International Traffic in Arms) regulations. If you would like to inquire about whether a particular product does allow for international shipping, 

Lead times are highlighted at the top of most products descriptions on our website. If not, depending on the delivery address and the item, delivery on average can take anywhere from 10-30 business days. Certain vests and carriers have long lead times as they are manufactured on demand, or are higher in demand.

Additionally, various external events have previously, and may in the future, cause a significant increase in demand for body armor products which may also delay or temporarily increase lead times for various products. 

When your order is processed and shipped, we will send you a tracking number. To see the status of your order, just enter your tracking number in the corresponding carrier’s website.

We usually have a long queue of orders that require processing and shipping. When you select Premium Priority Fulfillment, your order is moved to the front of the queue so that you order is processed and shipped faster than other orders. Additionally, many items have limited stock so Premium Priority Fulfillment also better ensures you receive a product, especially popular ones, before it is sold out.

Once your order has been ordered you will receive 2 communications about your order. We do not send any “update” emails in-between because as it would significantly slow down production to check every order in the pipeline.
