Many Choices? - Just get your measurements

We are happy to explain the pros and cons of the
options.

When
comparing weights - please be aware that we quote ACTUAL weights
for a normal size Large vest, ready to wear.
We do NOT play the artificial "weight loss" games you may
encounter elsewhere, such as quoting the weight of an Small, Short,
WITHOUT an outershell carrier.
We
recommed buying a vest based on weight AND coverage area, not just weight.

Outershell Special $ 20 - $ 30
An extra carrier
is a great investment if you rip your vest hopping barbed wire,
etc., etc. ... or just want to have another color option.
We have an
overstock of Camo outershells from a military contract overrun,
so we are providing these Brand-New carriers at a give-away price.
Just the torso
carrier- no accessory components or ballistic material.
Thus your vest
would keep the same color on the collars that you have now.
These carriers
are also great for paintball vests, or a load bearing vest (the
back Rifle Plate Pocket is a super-sized hydration pouch).

same design as the Interceptor OTV above, but newly
made to the ever so slightly thicker NIJ Level
III-A standard (for Police Departments that must adhere to NIJ
standards). Level III-A is tested to stop .44 Magnum, instead

ProMAX "Turtle"
Jacket
|
|
"An
OTV on steroids"
- We call it the
"Turtle" as it offers MAXIMUM practical protection, while
preserving mobility. (The most coverage you can get in
a vest, short of a bomb suit.)
- You add a couple
of pounds of weight, but compared to the Interceptor mil-spec, (OTV),
it offers much more coverage and protection:
- 2"
- 3" higher coverage under the armpit
- 2"
more coverage lower on the back
- 4"
Over-the-Shoulder Protection (vs. 2" wide on OTV)
- 3"
high collars vs. 2" tall
- Front opening
jacket style modeled on the PASGT vest, but with more flexible,
comfortable and protective Level III-A aramid / Kevlar protection.
Overlap front closure for seamless, double-breasted protection.
- System includes:
- Vest with
with Rifle Plate Pockets
- Extra-high
Collars sewn-in
- Generous
Over-the-Shoulder Protection
- Velcro-Detachable
Groin Protector
- Hydration
Pouch - a 9" by 11" Camelback pouch on the rear
- MOLLE
web strips to attach pouches all over the front and lower
back area
- 10" by 12" Rifle Plate pockets on the front and
back (~25 by 30 cm.). This upgrades the Rifle Plates area to Level
III or IV rifle protection. Oversize Rifle Plate Pockets also
available.
Rifle Plates sold separately.
- Certified to
NIJ Standard 01.0104 / .05
in Level II and III-A.

Also known as bicep
protectors, this modular set plugs your vest's armpit / shoulder gap
by adding Velcro-detachable Upper Arm Protection. Covers the Bicep,
Tricep and Deltoid in Level III-A protection.
Easily attached
to Interceptors / OTVs, and all of our Tactical vests, with a strap
to the vest at the shoulder, and elastic/Velcro around the bicep.
Protecting the
upper arm is important, but most critical is the fact that you now have
good cover for the shoulder and armpit gap that is open by necessity
on all vests.
For very exposed
positions, e.g., turret gunners,entry teams, etc., etc. we also offer
Forearm Protectors which extend
from wrist to elbow, and provide very good coverage from wrist to shoulder,
when combined with the Upper Arm Protectors. (To maintain flexibility
and ease of movement there is a small gap at the elbow.)
