Love seeing the content on the range. Fast gun law news and shooting content. What's not to like? Thanks for what you do g&g!

[@GunsGadgets]

Thank you 🙏

[@ChiefMiddleFinger]

Range Therapy is always good and everyone should get some time behind a 1911. Still one of the best triggers ever designed. Good video !

[@bmstylee]

A 1911 is nice. But a 2011 is nicer.

[@theGhost_141]

Yeah. Except that .45 is a relic that can't compete with modern rounds

[@TXGRunner]

@@theGhost_141 yeah, not modern like the 9x19 designed in 1901, 3 years before Browning designed the 45 ACP. Personally, I am partial to 38 Super (1929), 40S&W (1990), and 357 Sig (1994), all available in 1911s. I've decided I really want projectiles leaving the muzzle at over 1350 fps, which 38 Super and 357 Sig can do with some factory defensive loads.

[@markjordan348]

Nice to see American-made body armor being advertised on a pro to a platform! I would like to see soft body armor tested with a crushable backing. Maybe a inch and a half block of Styrofoam between the armor and the steel plate Target. Because although it will stop the bullet and keep you alive it won't keep you from being injured. I would bet the 357 Sig would be capable of breaking ribs. And even a 38 special would probably leave a nasty bruise.

[@protectiverailroaddad7541]

I have had this vest for about 10 months now. Good vest and not overly bulky. Mind pretty much disappears under a loose fitting tee shirt or hoodie. Like all these vest though, it does get rather warm even in the winter.

[@brandonmousseau2020]

Really cool to see you shooting. Love the regular news and content, but like I said it's good to see you shoot. Stay safe and thanks for all you do.🙏🇺🇲🙏🇺🇲

[@jamesshepherd1665]

Well done Jared! Thank you for the vest review. I've actually been looking for a new vest.

[@louiscapasso4452]

Great review, and for the price that is amazing! Thanks for taking the time to do this considering the price of ammunition and lack thereof.

[@steelpunisher6944]

Awesome to see you at the range Jared! Seems like a solid vest for the money. Thanks for ALL you do.

[@MargateFL33063]

I just purchased a BulletSafe ballistic VP3 vest 2 weeks ago. Always order a size larger than you are. Great strong vest, the carrier is very durable and the ballistic material is heavy duty. Great vest for the price of $299.00. I strongly recommend this vest for duty work concealed. I work armed security full time.

[@raynothing]

Do you happen to know if this vest is effective against knife attacks?

[@ShiftyKen08]

I like your range videos and while I cannot say enough how much I appreciate your hard work and due diligence reporting on our 2A rights, I'm glad to see you have time for this too

[@GunsGadgets]

Much appreciated

[@brodyscarlett5527]

Mom, can we get buffman range? No, we have buffman range at home. Buffman range at home:

[@mclt8883]

Jared , Thank you for showing us that. Many people claim stats but you showed us the results.

[@amputeemarksman]

Nice to see this. I own a VP3 and the fit and comfort is much better than my plate carrier loaded with AR500.

[@crusaderofvalor8700]

Very nice review! Looks like a great vest, I would love to get one sometime. Thanks for making the review!

[@davidallegro3395]

Great to see the review. Like the fact that it wraps around the body on the sides.

[@douglasboisvert276]

Thanks for reviewing this, with so many options it's good to see reviews on something.

[@dalestark3343]

Busting those algorithms. Nice to see Jared at the range getting some trigger time in on camera.

[@TXGRunner]

Fun to see you at the range. Pretty obvious you're having a good time. Sounds like a heck of a deal, I wish I could take advantage of it, but I'll have to wait.

[@primeddefender]

Thank you sir for the review and all you do! Love this channel always packed with great information

[@SctyGrpPowers]

MrGunsandGear reviewed Safe Life thin armor. It EXCEEDED THE 3a it is rated for, but way more expensive than Bullet Safe by 3 times.

[@freedomfamily1358]

Thank you Jared I'm going on rite now to get one

[@hardthunder9913]

Thank You!!! Beautiful tools, got the job done.

[@ronbotex]

Even though I had their old model, I picked up the VP3. Ordered large after watching video on Monday and received it on Wednesday. Definitely lighter and thinner than the old model and had mesh on both sides which the old one didn't. Also cut a little different for better arm movement. I would pick one up before they ban body armor for us peasants. Also the old one was pure UHMWPE, while this is is hybrid of both Aramid and UHMWPE. Again NIJ certified, and USA made for less that $299 with code is unheard of. Also I have some 10X12 PE plates that can be slipped into the pockets if needed. Thanks!

[@billy19461]

Always great videos and great information!

[@kmk1428]

Love it ! And love that we can see the adrenaline running when shooting cos that’s cool and yay for that ! Great job Jarred ! Lovin it !

[@jamesdr4256]

Thank you Jared

[@87aokeefe]

Thanks Jared. Great video!

[@tonyv8925]

That was a way cool demonstration. Thanks for sharing.

[@timothymarquis2305]

Thank You for all The Great Content

[@Harleyever]

Thanks , to the point ....on messing around.....love my Canik

[@firefightersmith2703]

Thank you Jared I have been back and forth on two bullet proof vest. I won't mention the other one but by comparison and both being tested as you just did i think I'm going to go with bullet safe. As always my friend your awesome and are very informative I might not always comment but I do watch all your videos. Until next time

[@Kylecombes4]

Thanks Jared

[@tuloko16]

What kind of ammo did you use on the test? I ask, because your garden variety criminal carries cheap FMJ, which is actually more effective at penetrating armor compared to hollow points.

[@chips2458]

Thanks for the review

[@HistoryandReviews]

Good video jared your reviews are great

[@blueduck9409]

Jared, love seeing you doing a video on the range. I think it would be great if you did more videos at the range.

[@709Zulu]

Thanks again Jared

[@actionjackson9201]

Real cool Sir in this day and age every bit helps

[@geec5636]

Just ordered mine, yay

[@outdooradventureswithjason6275]

Thank you for sharing brother, looks like a good product. Hope to see more product review.

[@scottplagmann3411]

As long as the armor does it's job I can suffer some discomfort being preferable compared to bleeding out from a sucking chest wound.

[@Cavalier1645]

You'll still feel like someone hit you with sledge hammer when 44 mag rounds hit you.

[@scottplagmann3411]

@@Cavalier1645 I have no doubt of that, and in the case of a headshot it's all a moot point. I am very hot and cold about armor, mainly is the protection worth loss of mobility. At least the cost is not so prohibitive and access to the 'good stuff' has improved. Guess it's one of those better to have it and not need it deals.

[@JohnB-zu5pr]

Looking at some I hope in the near future. I hope you keep up with JSD Supply and keep us in the loop. Thank You

[@seansummers5160]

I have same Sig MPX. Love it.

[@paulterrell3349]

Bullet safe is very comfortable and makes it easy to maneuver and dose not weight me down.

[@handlebarslim78]

Thank you brother for another informative video. I appreciate you brother for what you do for We The People.

[@guardianminifarm8005]

Impressive. Thank you.

[@1.forestrunner]

Thanks for sharing!

[@TTiger86268]

Been looking for a good reliable vet for the money, thanks for the review.

[@joelrainey1979]

Alright finally got some shooting in I love my range days I feel so much better after 👍

[@l.a.3887]

Great video thanks keep up the good fight 👍

[@drkrypton4410]

very good. thanks!!

[@williampayton9515]

Bullet Safe also has a Military/First Responder discount option if you qualify using Gov-X verification system. Nice to see you outside testing gear brother.

[@5five6rudy]

Good content Jared

[@billbeam8069]

Good review brother

[@Friedbrain11]

Wow...I want one of those vests!

[@mattmarkowski909]

Great review! Not to be critical, but you skipped 10mm. And since you mentioned slash/stab resistance, a couple of jabs with a knife would have been appreciated. Glad to see you doing reviews and greatly appreciate all the 2A news and updates as well. Keep it coming.

[@USGunnery]

Finally some gadget review.

[@billberry8240]

Great product review 👌

[@GunsGadgets]

Thank you

Holy shit, a video from g&g that doesn't put me in a rage lol. Thanks man

[@samgiancana420]

Awesome review 👍 Thank you brother ✊🇺🇲

[@keithweiss7899]

The guy who started Second Chance many decades ago used to shoot himself in the chest with a .44 magnum. He did put books under it to keep from bruising though.

[@davidcleveland9815]

Thanks Jared great video 🙂👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@GunsGadgets]

Thanks 👍

[@rarapcn2885]

I love my mpx k it’s my go too home defense gun. I love the trigger on sig mpx k

[@bobcat9501]

I like these videos you should do more

[@albertvonschultz9137]

I remember 30 years ago the event that I originally had it was a lot thicker than that and I was sure glad when they started coming out with shirt carriers that way sitting on a motorcycle you can pop panel open on the side and let some air in. I remember buying those special t-shirts That was supposed to be designed to keep you cooler with body armor and honestly I don't think they work. LOL being out in Northern California getting 95 to 105 and sometimes a little hotter was plaid interesting in the summertime. One thing is that is kind of nice and then put in the pockets already in it because I remember back in the day the front pocket normally was free but the rear pocket you had to pay extra for. I remember that my vest cost me about $800

[@raymondperez8558]

Bro i’m armed security guard in California I barely got this vest last month I really like it I got the tactical version🤙

[@johnswicegood7000]

Because they only offer their vest in black, I decided to customize mine with multicam. I am not the best seamstress in the world, but I think it turned out pretty good. Plus I added a grab handle to the back behind the neck, multicam Molle on the front and back and I sewed the shoulder straps in place.

[@donbearden1953]

This sounds like a great deal. I would like to see the damage from a 44mag.

[@roguefive512]

What was the distance of your target? This is the first time I've seen you do a demo on this channel awesome please do more.

[@johnswicegood7000]

I love my bullet safe vest

[@codyjenn8785]

That is sweet armor

[@wyodarkhorse5323]

Great to see you at the range, Jared. Hate to be "that guy" but they're out of almost every size but xs and I think 3xl. Any idea when they might be getting more available? Love the channel. Keep up the great work.

[@rodiculous9464]

Being able to up armor it is a good idea

[@jamessmith-ow1bf]

Bullet type and velocity determines whether or not they will defeat a vest not just any common off the shelf round will do it. Load a full size G31 357 Sig with some solid copper rounds from Underwood and see what happens. Also vests don't protect hips, legs, arms. shoulders, neck or head and those are the places that when hit will stop a fight the quickest. Then there is blunt force trauma.

[@michaelwolford6207]

Thanks. I'm due for a new vest.

[@ETC_Rohaly_USCG]

As I sit here, TDY in Oakland, CA, I’m wishing I brought my plates with me… Among other tools.

[@aams8721]

You were having too much fun with that 😜

[@REB-forever]

I got to have some of this.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@martincolvill5453]

Just echoing what everyone is saying, it's great to see range/testing time. This looks so much better than the old ballistic made of nylon which I wore. Uhg.

[@skullandcrossbones65]

G'day, Good to see you out of the house. How far into ballistics jell will the .223 go after in hits the vest?

[@shawnmercercrain9727]

Can you do a video on rifle vs hand gun vest? Thanks Jared!

[@davidcleveland9815]

Awesome price

[@justme_gb]

133 comments and only 3-4 possibly expressing disappointment there wasn't a 44 Magnum used. I'll go cry in a corner now.

[@TXGRunner]

357 Sig...an excellent choice.

[@bluephx5410]

Do review on safe life defence

[@budprepper3811]

Good price too 🙂👍

[@themawsjawz_9491]

Neat stuff

[@LeuvahkTrigger]

Im not gonna lie. You look much more impressive and intimidating in armor. Its crazy how well you wear it, like a second skin. Like, really I dont know what it is, you almost look like a different person altogether.

[@rgr3427]

Thanks for the info. Good to see someone NOT wearing the vest when testing it, scary stupid world we live in.

[@10robroe]

Great Looking Vest. Your right it stops what it is to stop. However I do have 1 question and it my sound stupid, but with the popularity of crossbows. Will it stop one? Just curious. I have since on other channel, crossbows going part way through the vests.

[@sethlaplante221]

I'd love to see how it would do against Liberty Civil Defense 9mm round!

[@warrenharrison9490]

Excellent value, paid a little more for similar from another company.

[@davidcleveland9815]

That soft body armor is the way to go and it don't way a ton x Miltary 😁👍

[@lyfandeth]

No side pockets for side plates?
