It is the SOLE
responsibility of the purchaser to ensure that all transactions conform
to U.S. and Federal, State and Local Statutes, Codes, and Ordinances.
We
Sell ONLY to Law-Abiding Adults
Body
Armor is a purely defensive item but, regardless, we are very sensitive
to the possibility of vests being misused by criminals. By buying
a vest from us, you certify that you are law-abiding, of adult
age, and have no felony convictions. We do not sell to felons
or minors, and it is against the law for a felon to possess Body Armor
under both federal law (unless required by your employer, see,
Sec. 931) and is also illegal under state law in many states.
We cooperate
with law enforcement to stop the use of vests by criminals.
If you
have any criminal purpose in mind (or resell your armor to a criminal)
you do NOT want to have bought Body Armor from us! (See our Privacy
Commitment)
We reserve the
right to refuse to sell to anyone, in our sole discretion. By buying
body armor you guarantee that you are not legally prohibited from
owning firearms, or body armor, and also that you are not associated
with any criminal group, in any way, and have only a lawful purpose
for owning body armor.
WARNING:
U.S. EXPORT CONTROL LAWS
Level III and IV armor
falls under the jurisdiction of the International Traffic in Arms Regulations
(ITAR), and is subject to the export control laws of the U.S. Government.
Export or retransfer of
Rifle Plates by any means to any foreign end user, or for any other end use,
whether in the U.S. or abroad, without the written approval of the U.S.
Department of State, is prohibited.
Level
III-A, Level II, and Level II-A VESTS may have an export license
exemption for friendly countries, but require a license to some countries
from the Bureau
of Industry & Security (BIS).
Kevlar Helmets,
Shields, Riot Shields, Faceshields and other sensitive items generally
require an export license from the BIS.
Residents of
Connecticut are prohibited from buying Body Armor unless the
sale is face to face (or unless the buyer is a police officer, Police
Department, or military).
We cannot ship
to residents of Connecticut who are not police or military.
NO Armor is 100% Bulletproof
A 'bulletproof' vest or
other armor will protect you from the vast majority of pistol ballistic threats
you are ever likely to face. But there is always a tradeoff between more protection
and more wearability (and the constraint to stay within your budget). Please
know that:
- rifle rounds
- unusual high velocity
pistol ammunition
- pistol ammo fired from
a rifle barrel
- armor piercing ammunition
- sharp-edged or pointed
instruments (e.g., knives, icepicks, etc.), and/or
- other unusual ammunition
or situations...
CAN defeat body armor.
Also, at some angles projectiles
can slide, or deflect off the edges of Armor, or ricochet. Furthermore, projectiles
that are successfully stopped by armor will always produce some level of injury,
resulting in severe bruising, broken bones, and possibly serious internal injury
or even death. Soft body armor defeats most pistol and shotgun projectiles,
but NO vest on earth makes you invulnerable to all threats. To
state the obvious, getting shot ALWAYS carries some risk.
Be
aware that your head is much more susceptible to blunt trauma than
your body. ANY impact of a bullet on a helmet WILL CAUSE INJURY AND
CAN CAUSE DEATH. You put the odds more in your favor with head protection,
but, just as with ANY armor, no guarantee of invulnerability can be
made.
By buying Armor you assume
ALL risks of use or misuse, and agree not to hold us liable in any way.
In addition, YOU are responsible to ensure that your ballistic panels are positioned
inner side IN, and outer side OUT if applicable (check the inside vest panel
label).
