Yep, u were correct about the FRONT SIDE! And the rest says DON’T DROP IT OR BAKE IT 😅😅

[@zero_thunder9261]

“bake” means drying the plate (or the vest with plate) with heat

0:50 roughly translates to "Avoid dropping or exposing to high temperatures" if i'm reading it right

do not bake

[@samsniper2000]

It doesn't have the ballistic backer that is required to make it GA6 rated which is why it performed so poorly.

[@JohnZ556]

PAP don't usually face well armed threats, like, at all, it would be breaking news if they were fighting anyone with even Type56 semi(sks) and those plates looked pretty old. So I guess those are fine...?

SRT plates are the most interesting to me, especially if designed as an ICW plate. While the overall construction of this particular design was far from ideal, testing of similar ICW SRT plates would be welcomed.

[@ThatOneGuy-mn6dv]

This is only from me from what I'm personally know regarding the Chinese here. The PLAAP is sort of a national police with regional/local police under it. Think Gendarmerie in a way to many outside western understanding. Clearly a nationalize police in this case will have different stuff depending on missions, personal and roles due to a number of different reasons. If this armor is use by local police well it means they aren't likely to find themselves dealing with people who from said areas that are likely going to be a threat to them objectively speaking to that point, and if they are they will likely call for more powerful police unit if that's the case. Sadly this seems to be given to the more local cops for more lesser dangers in areas that though pose a threat just not the most dangerous from a objective bigger picture point of view here. SF units aren't going to be given this stuff and we know of some of this stuff can take a lot of abuse that they are issued let alone the stuff the guys from military as a whole in context to say what it was made to stop. We know say helmets can take a effectively the same amount of hate as we see else where like in the US or Russia forces as examples in their basic lighter forms but it's safe to say they are able to stop heavier threats coming at them like ours as well.

[@BuffRANGE]

Deacon did great! 🎉

[@BuffRANGE]

Indeed! Getting better every time!

[@dtroy15]

I would be very interested in seeing .277 sig fury against some of these foreign plates, including downloading to approximate longer shots. I’d be very curious if .277 made it through at 300 yards. I don’t think the rise of Chinese armor for general infantry use and the adoption of the .277 are unrelated.

[@azeke8]

Thing is that the military load has the same bullet construction as M80A1 / M855A1. Ball ammo has regular pressure with steel tip and copper slug. AP ammo has high pressure with tungsten tip and steel slug. AP ammo will erode barrels at much higher rate than ball ammo, but will in turn shred NIJ IV equivalent plates at up to 600 m distance. That is a 200 m gain over the best 7.62x51 AP ammo (NOT M993 which is rather mediocre by modern standards). However, what is more interesting to me is the performance of ball ammo. I think this can be approximated by shooting M80A1 bullet out of 300 Win Mag, which Buffman has already done in the past.

[@bower31]

Except the M7 rifle is gonna be seeing pretty limited service, it is not like originally stated, the new standard issue rifle. The adoption of M855A1 I think is more significant

[@HanlinTacticalstudio]

This piece is an auxiliary anti-ballistic board. It needs to be matched with IIIA to achieve 10~15M defense against 5.8 rifles. Non-GA6 standards may be GA5, III~III+ levels. Their B4C board is about 1.6kg.

[@chrisblack6258]

It's GJB (G-country, J-military, B-standard) 2002 Level 6, so it should be similar to GA (G-country, A-police) 6. I don't see what the level of protection the backer supposed to have though.

[@FreedomKat]

A Cermaic not stopping an A1 is a no go. These are some Temu plates lol. Did you ever get a chance to test the C3 plates (Ceramics) from Armored Republic? Would love to see your results. Great channel and keep it up!

[@BuffRANGE]

I've been unable to get AR to work with me on the C3. It's an odd situation. I've fairly assessed their products over the years and their marketing person told me that they'd send me some of the C3's when they released them. He no longer answers my emails since the A3 demo. Me out of pocket buying C3, is probably out of the question at least at this time. I did that with the Dayton Plates, and will take me some time to recover.

[@FreedomKat]

@BuffRANGE I totally understand and srr to hear about no communication with you from them. Keep up the great work though. Us viewer's love it!

GOOD MORNING ARMOR WIZARD BABY 💯😎💥🎯🧨🧨🦅🦅🇺🇲🦅🔥🦅

[@BuffRANGE]

Goood MORNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@nickedds2907]

Subsonic tungsten 8.6 blk is the most interesting round, if it was mass made it would be the most practical home defence round. Its hearing safe with suppresor, has the max grain for mag fed ar so the max energy and best firearm platform, and tugsten core ensures lvl 3a penetration with a good chance for defeating higher lvls

[@MountaintravelerEddie]

I got Chinese military uniforms from a Chinese guy in Guigang, China……videos on my channel The plates are cool, but I know they are phasing these plates out.. And yes I speak Chinese

GA6 POLICE Plate NIJ level 3+ ( ICW 3A soft armor )

[@g.k.6913]

Good to see more interesting tests from you. I really like that you get 7n6M ( althoug also replaced long time ago) and show people that world didnt stop on 7n6, would be cool to see you compare 7n10M and 7n22 to A1. I remmber people making makeshift armor donations to Ukraine and they were testing it aganist standard 7n6 and 7.62x39, without concern for higher threats.

[@BuffRANGE]

The downside is I have no way to get 7N10m or 7N22 :(

[@g.k.6913]

@@BuffRANGE I know, its definetly hard to get hands on exotic stuff but maybe someday.

It's kind of bizarre to me that they opted for this awful plate than their own domestic manufacture militech production.

[@BuffRANGE]

I need to ask Militech if they can comment on if they supply Chinese Govt/Military with their products.

[@2006Mercury]

Yes sir

[@alexanderstordeur9434]

So Chinese military and police body armor is NIJ level 3.....A?

[@chrisblack6258]

This one is GJB 4300-2002 level 6, and I think it performs more like a NIJ level 3+ plate (I don't think 3+ is official, but it's used to indicate the plate can stop the M855), considering it stops the M80, M855 but not M855A1. Although I've seen some claims that a newer standard has been published in 2012

[@RickSanchez167]

Its likely a SRT for 5.56 threats short of m855A1. It stopped the .308, but it was way over on backface

[@TheSkeptic000]

Cool.

[@StevenRoberts-m8v]

Wow I'm surprised by the results!! Not the highest quality eh! Good to know what this stuff is and how it will preform!!

[@ZJJSL]

If new, the quality shouldn't be like that weak i think so , But even it's not new, it still meets the protection level all, right? whatever GA6 just can't hold M855A1

[@lukasmuller0421]

Those characters below were saying “do not drop, do not burn”. And as a matter of fact, GA6 is the highest level here in China. I’m still not sure how GA standards works, so I’m sticking with good ol’ NIJ standards for my plate carrier

[@ZJJSL]

GA6 is for chinese police top level ,and GJB is for military . that can hold more that GA level just like the UAS NIJ level

[@SolFireYT]

What is that thumbnail lmao

[@BuffRANGE]

A little bit of Anime/Manga to freshen it up? lol

[@Raufoss211]

Chinese girl for Chinese armor video, why not 😃

[@notachair4757]

I'd bet that the tungsten 8.6 is also very hard to stop due to the fact that the tungsten core is made harder to shatter by the low velocity.

[@BuffRANGE]

Indeed it seems it is at times.

[@jamesofallthings3684]

I'm not surprised by the same people that wear those ridiculous and useless armor masks. They might be confident now, but if anything ever goes down they're gonna be in for a very rude awakening.

[@BuffRANGE]

There's almost zero application of those bullet types against any armor other than soft IIIA.

[@TheGunNerd]

@BuffRANGE still would be fun to see seeing as match rounds are becoming more widespread for their accuracy and soft tissue performance

[@BuffRANGE]

@@TheGunNerd There's somewhat of a stretch there to an extent of their "soft tissue performance". 77gr MK262 is very inconsistent soft tissue wise, as it's primary role is precision.

@@BuffRANGE the way they tumble, yaw, and fragment in tissue and gel is what I meant. Better performance than ball ammo, greater energy dump, etc

[@BuffRANGE]

@@TheGunNerd Yep, but their ability to do that is inconsistent :D There was a bit of a write up on AR15.com about it from Molon. Now on the flip side at distance being able to get that hit on target is > than it's terminal performance at range.

@@BuffRANGE I think 8.6 would take off a bit more if it didn't explode bullets and could shoot cast stuff or just cheaper ammo. With most sub stuff you're just poking holes, and lead vs copper isn't gonna make a meaningful difference on paper or dirt.
