392heminut Posted June 20, 2019 Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 Caught this comment over at Police One and felt like sharing it. I gotta love a company that supports my brothers and sisters in blue like this! "After the Dallas PD officers were shot, my dear mother called me with questions about how the officers could have been killed if they were wearing vests. I explained to her about soft body armor and how it won't stop rifle rounds. She asked if my department provides us with anything that will stop rifle rounds, to which I related they do not. So without asking me, she went online to Spartan Armor Systems and ordered a full front, sides, back, AR500 steel plate and carrier setup. After she paid and put in the order, her receipt showed they were already backordered. At this time, my mother called the company and told them what I did and that she was really worried about me. They told her "don't worry, ma'am", and they express shipped the better AR600 steel armor right to me. If any of you are looking for steel plate armor, use Spartan Armor Systems. I can't vouch for them enough. " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpshooter Posted August 17, 2019 Report Share Posted August 17, 2019 Just saw this. That's great! The last time I wore a badge (back in the 70s) the best I could come up with was a slightly small second hand Second Chance vest. Thankfully, I never had to find out how well it would work. Hope you never have to find out about yours, either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wore them religiously on duty! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted August 21, 2019 Report Share Posted August 21, 2019 Glad to hear you're out of it. It's a young man's game and getting tougher to stay within the rules. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
