Still Got Questions?
From legality to fit, here’s what you need to know.
Body armor is legal to own in most states for law-abiding citizens.
However, New York and Connecticut are governed by tyrants and have enacted laws to inhibit your ability to purchase armor. Please contact customer service for further details if you are a resident of one of these states and are interested in purchasing armor.
To get an NIJ certification, which we have done many times, one must:
1. Pay extra thousands of dollars for the sticker.
2. Promise never to improve the plate.
3. Consent to government searches of our facility in perpetuity.
All of our armor is tested to meet and exceed NIJ standards, at the exact same independent laboratories that test for NIJ certification.
As we continue to develop new plates, in most cases we have decided to forgo the bureaucratic stamp while still using the same respected independent laboratories.
Weight varies by plate type, and is mostly dependent on desired stopping power.
Each product page includes the specific weight and dimensions.
Most orders ship within 5–7 business days via FedEx from our Phoenix, Arizona facility.
You’ll receive tracking information as soon as your order goes out. Custom or specialty items may take longer.
We accept returns or exchanges within 30 days of purchase, as long as the item is unused and not a custom-built or clearance product.
See our Return Policy for full details.
Proper sizing depends on your body type and the product. Most of our plate carriers are adjustable to fit a wide range of users.
As a general guide:
- Choose a plate that covers your vital organs (not your entire torso)
- Most adults use 10×12” plates
