The American Era

A man wearing the MK1 tactical chest rig and holding a rifle, showcasing modular gear for tactical operations.

In these four centuries, the Free Man has reshaped the world.

He has created an unmatched era of liberty, righteousness, and prosperity.

In our day, it has almost been lost. But it is not lost.

The Free Man has been tested, tried, and brought to his breaking point. But he has not quit.

And as long as he has not quit, he will win.

You will win. 

You are heir to the American era. Cherish it. Defend it.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is body armor legal in my state?

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. In response, we have organized three deals (seen above) that are legal in New York. Please contact customer service for further details if you are a resident of one of these states and are interested in purchasing armor.

How do I know what size I need?

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
  • Watch this video to learn how to size your armor correctly: Watch Sizing Guide Video
How heavy are the plates?

Weight varies by plate type. In the selection above, the Strongest & Least Expensive kits both have armor weighing about 8 pounds per plate. The Lightweight option, however, is only 5.5 pounds per plate.

Each product page includes the specific weight and dimensions.

How fast do you ship?

Due to high volume in recent months, lead times are longer than usual for body armor shipments; please allow for 4 weeks lead time. Many orders go out sooner. All orders via FedEx from our Phoenix, Arizona facility.
You’ll receive tracking information as soon as your order goes out.

Can I return or exchange my kit?

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.

Are your armor plates NIJ certified?

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.
