I personally like the Flak vest, for all around wear, it will stop subsonic rounds and flak.

$70, excellent item to have and that is a great price!

How about a Molle plate carrier in a choice of several different camo color patterns,as well as solid colors.The carrier will come with two Threat Level IIIA hard plates.These plates have a 25yr warranty,and dont degrade like Kevlar.These plates are stand alone or can be used with additional soft Kevlar soft panels to upgrade the threat level.These are not Kevlar or Ceramic plates,but are made out of laminate fiberglass and polymer.How does"$150.00+shipping"sound.Anyone interested let me know.The components take 3wks to ship to me,and then I have to trim the panels/plates to fit the carriers.The carriers are a Fox clone from China via Australia,but are of good quality or I wouldnt be using them.I'm waiting to see if there are enough interested buyers before I actually post these as a for sale item.Matt
