I feel like concealable armor like this will be more mainstream than classic armor in the future, as this can be worn in every day civilian life.

[@urbanjungle9600]

I would love to see this used on one of those realistic ballistic bleeding dummies that Garand Thumb uses to see the trauma damage like broken ribs, hydro shock injuries etc.

[@efrey614]

This channel I’ve seen what you speak of used on other armor tests here. Agree though.

[@twiztidrivers6192]

Even with that shirt on ur still dead.

[@imFrawst]

This is a great video. Seeing armor get tested by trustworthy people makes me more comfortable as a customer

[@chrise2621]

I like options, but I would personally use a slick concealed carrier instead. The extra weight pulling the t shirt around would drive me nuts, and I'd also prefer a panel that wraps around instead of just a square, though I understand the idea is to protect the vitals. Just seems kind of loosey goosey to me. To each their own though, definitely better than no armor.

[@BosleyBeats]

I’m a proud owner of this armor. It’s honest worth every single penny. I was hoping you’d test it out with the shot shell that it is rated to defend against. Regardless great video

[@Mr2110Sandman]

I also own this armor and I completely concur . It is indeed worth every penny and more . They also offered a discount since it was my first order which I took full advantage of before purchasing it . If everyone was smart enough like us to purchase bulletproof armor there would be a lot less fatalities in regard to people being killed by guns . Most people only buy guns but don't think about actually keeping bullets from perforating their bodies and becoming fatally wounded or seriously injured by having bulletproof armor if they get shot . Hope he does do a video on testing this armor on 12 guage shot gun shells which it is also able to defend against since it is level IIIA bulletproof body armor. I would also very much love to see him test it against knifes, because it is rated to be stab and slash proof/resistant. Where I live we in the East Coast we had almost 600 murders last year in 2021 ,so I definitely had to buy this item which was in October of 2021 just several months ago .

[@Mr2110Sandman]

@Air Shootist Not might it will actually save someone's life if they wear this body armor. Think about it ,statistically speaking most killings happen as a result of being shot by handguns . As long as the wearer of this bulletproof armor is not shot in the throat or head which is quite uncommon than they should be perfectly fine .

[@NoNo_IStay]

Not complete without IIIA undergarments. Drastically reduces your probability of "pitching a tent" at the wrong moment 👍

[@drw505]

Thanks for giving me the info on this premier body armor EDC now I can wear something with my concealed carry been wanting some kind of body armor for everyday use but didn't want to wear a big old bulletproof vest just to be safe nice to know that they have something like this that I can wear in the mall and such

[@OrdinaryAmerican]

Great video review, thanks, Eric!

[@Wayofthelost1]

The 44 definitely sold it for me. I also bought 4 inserts for my kids' backpacks.

[@Mr2110Sandman]

Thanks a lot for the video, man . I bought this armor recently just several months ago in October 2021 and it's definitely worth the hundreds of dollars that I spent on it. It's absolutely cool to wear whenever I travel outside of my house and I feel invincible since I know that it will make me essentially bullet proof from most guns that people commonly use for self -defence . Most people who get shot are killed or injured primarily by handguns, so this body armor is completely utilitarian advantageous, and useful . Most people are too ignorant to know better to buy bulletproof armor ,and only invest in guns which is entirely foolish on their part . Making yourself bulletproof by purchasing a product like this is still a novelty to a lot of people ,so they are unable to fathom the overall practicality of it . Wearing this armor will give you a tremendous advantage in any gunfight. I feel like James Bond aka 007 when I have it on my person .

[@TheDucatiPilot]

Yes, I'll wear it in my everyday life, on the beach here in Florida 😂. Cool product though.

[@NoNo_IStay]

Would probably work well as a trauma pad for wearing behind your normal rig, as well.

[@knrz2562]

Yup

[@joshuamaxam5086]

I bought one a few months back and I wear it everyday at this point super comfortable I forget I have it all the time. Very light weight and comfortable its only saved be from a few pokes to the ribs so far. lol

[@OutdoorE]

The 22lr test was awesome.

[@mluiso23]

Awesome video. I wear a CoolMax soft at work and i have been interested in the TShirt design.

[@walterdavis4808]

Impressive stuff. Thanks

[@Dang_Near_Fed_Up]

I could see using this shirt / carrier under a plate carrier to stop spalling and maybe soften the impact a bit, a little extra protection never hurts. I could also see using this as a safety device on the farm when using a forestry mower. If you ever had some debris get by your safety cage you will understand the reasoning there as well. I have come off the machine looking like I was drug by a horse through briars many a day after mowing, and even required stitches a few times.

[@jasonsell8523]

[@scottlawrence1826]

Eric, I wish you would put some clay behind the plate, if I don’t know how much backface deformation is caused you can’t say wether or not it would save a life. Also the clay makes it so the Kevlar has something fairly firm to hold it in place while it takes a hit.

[@kenofken9458]

If it's NIJ rated, it should have already passed a BFD test.

[@demantoid418]

Sweet thanks fellas

[@TyrantExterminator1776]

It may stop those bigger ROUNDS and not put the BULLET inside you, But the Shock from the 44 mag could break ribs and or destroy organs. SO just cause you stopped the bullet doesn't mean you are 100% Safe.

[@woodchuck243]

How about a high speed camera view of the back face deformation of the bullet impacts Nobody has done that yet

[@baldwinosko6278]

Yeah that would be nice to have but I also know people that carry 44s and 45s If it will stop a 45 caliber I’d be good with that so but thank you for all your testing Eric and thank you for your service to our country

[@echofoxtrotwhiskey1595]

3A stops .44 magnum

[@briankeithwood]

I would love to see this against 300 blackout subsonic. I believed an old video showed s&b subsonic punched through a lot of body armor where 45 and 10mm didn't.

[@martinsonofwar395]

Subsonic 300blk goes through bullets resistant glass. There's a video somewhere with that title

[@louisduplooy8561]

Love the hat man🤘

[@larryalexander4833]

Wondering how it would perform doubled up against greater firepower?

[@OJsLeftGlove]

I think I'd just prefer a low profile carrier that actually holds the plates where they're supposed to go...

[@mikedag1176]

I'm with you I'd rather have a trauma plate that weighs in there so I know pretty sure my chest aint gonna explode from a 7.62.

[@booqueefious2230]

Just like anything else, you need something you will actually wear. Like you wouldn't try to conceal some big honking pistol in your summer shorts, better to have something practical that you'll use than something of superior performance that you end up leaving at home

[@jonboy9734]

You’re going to get nothing this concealed .

[@jeffreylunsford1867]

So cool thanks

[@brandonjett16]

Next time for level 3 armor try the 10mm underwood extreme penitraitors

[@CyclingAddiction]

Based on what I have seen on Kentucky Ballistics there is no better protection than making a vest from a bunch of Stretch Armstrongs. Those things seem to stop everything. 🙂I would think those .44 mags would have turned organs into jelly even if they did not pass through, but still a nice armored shirt.

[@mikedag1176]

Wow, LEVEL III Shirts?? Prices please??

[@martinsonofwar395]

Around 300 for shirt and panels iirc

[@jamesquigley8628]

Good to know about. Maybe it needs to be a tiny bit wider in the lower end as it can bend with the body somewhat. That 22 rimfire could zing around into a kidney from the front. Be Well.

Hey Eric, do you ever have plans on getting your hands on a Bren 2 Carbine?

I wonder if the deformation could still kill. Not sure how deep it would go. And is a .22 more of a threat because of the speed? Maybe combine this with a trauma plate.

Edit: man that 22 is sick! How much that weapon cost just bare bones? Ay yo I got the same green army fleece/wearing mine right now lol idk how I got away with it from CIF ha I deployed 4 times to Iraq from 2004 to 2012 and I believe it was my third tour in 2009-2010 when those fleeces came out as part of the Army's new cold weather system and fire retardant line. I hated the ACU era because a lot of the matching gear and clothing items were cheaply made and low durability, but that fleece is probably my favorite and the best new (well, new back then) Army issued clothing item ever produced from the beginning of the ACU era to the end. I wish we had the camo/duty uniform back then that the new generation of soldiers are wearing now. ACU was years of dogshit lol although I think the green Class A's we wore back then look way better than the Dress Blues or whatever TF the Army is on now.
