The Pareto Principle says that 80% of the benefit from something can come from 20% of the effort. The Freeman carrier applies that rule to body armor: Most of a larger carrier’s protection without the weight or hassle.
AR500 Armor’s Freeman is a unique carrier for its small size- made specially for the included Octagonal 9x9 plates, it covers your vitals while being easy to transport and easy to wear. The carrier’s material consists of a Cordura® front and a 500D Nylon Cordura back. Also, using the laser-cut PALS system, it is capable of accommodating up to 3 magazine pouches. Thin but durable and comfortable Hypalon® straps contribute to its low profile.
The accompanying 9x9 Octagonal Level III Steel Plates (two included) are rifle-stopping, multi-hit capable plates which minimize backface deformation. Also, these plates come already upgraded to our multi-curve design, for a more ergonomic fit.
Each plate’s FragLock coating™ keeps a bullet’s fragments from hitting you after impact, with the base coat capturing or deflecting those fragments away.
