Well, the "Big boys" use something called automatic weapons. That shit has at least 3 round bursts. Plus, even with standard shit, there is the old fashionded fucking double tap.

Uh huh. And how often with a double tap do you make 1 hole?

Dammit, just ordered a set. Not right.

At cqc, it happens more often than you think. Ceramic plates may be fine and good for LEO going up against a punk with a Jennings .25 ACP. However, a shtf scenario against real weapons, I don't think I will have the luxury of changing shit out. I thought this was for a 2nd AR500 buy and not ceramic pottery.

I totally agree, which is why I'm getting rid of my ceramics. I prefer the risk of getting shot in the face than breaking a plate by being hit, or shit, you should see how many I've seen broken just by dropping a carrier while taking it off or putting it on. I need something that will last the long haul, and I'll take the possible spalling as my trade off.

I have AR500 with the line-x build up for just that reason. If the SHTF and I won't be getting more plates I want my protection to be able to last FOREVER. I figure I also won't have time to recoat my plates and the build up does a better job of stopping fragments from subsequent shots.

However if I had money to stock many plates of ceramic I would feel quite safe wearing them, and I would be able to move faster if they were the lightweight ceramic. I don't have that option however.

Dale, can you arrange a group buy one some of these?

Then a again, some of these masks made out of AR500 would be cool!

In.

Ive got a point blank vest thats rated for 9mm sub gun and lesser threats but I think I can put plates in it, wouldn't the kevlar stop the spalding if it hit a steel plate and how much weight does that add.
