How much weight does the line-x add? I can find out I don't know.Originally Posted by Capt. mike
The kevlar should stop the fragments, however the one concern I have is the ones that travel 90 degrees to the plate, does the kevlar wrap over the edge. If so I would think you are golden.
When I despair, I remember that all through history the ways of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants, and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall. Think of it--always.
I would think so they have a curve to them so it should catch all the stray pieces even at 90degs, my only concern is your trading speed and mobility for armor that aint gonna help if you catch one in the face. Also that vest I have kinda sandwiches together with velcro and buttons in the front so how would you get a plate in there?
The curve is in the horizontal only. Imagine the fragments traveling vertically. If you have any kind of a gut, like I do, the plates get a bit of an angle right towards your adams apple area. Lots of really important stuff that is not protected.

Adds a thickness of .5” and adds ¾”lb or 1" and 1.5 lb for front and back plates.

Thanks. I was on my phone and didn't want to look it up from the small screen.. Then forgot about it.
