Best Lightweight Level 3 Body Armor Ever
Everyday before I think about a topic to research and write about, I look at which topics our customers and readers are searching for the most.To get more news about green bulletproof vest, you can visit bulletproofboxs.com official website.
It’s been clear to us that the majority of our customers are looking for lightweight level 3 body armor, that is NIJ compliant, and can be worn in public places.
Even though we are actively trying to bring in new customers from law enforcement organizations and the military, our Shotstop body armor is for everyone. Before we get started on which armor is the best for specific situations and missions, I want to ensure everyone knows the laws and rules (at least on federal level) for wearing body armor in public.
Is Level 3 Body Armor Illegal?
One of the constant questions we get that I may have failed to explain better in the blog above is whether or not the Level of armor makes a difference in legality.
To be clear, there are many states that have different laws about body armor, so it’s important to research your own state before you buy.
However, there is no law by the federal government preventing a law-abiding American citizen from purchasing or wearing Level 3 body armor.
Every American is entitled to finding the best available protection for themselves and their families.
There are 2 ways to figure out if your body armor is NIJ-listed and on the active compliant list with the Criminal Justice Testing and Evaluation Consortium (CJETC).
The first way to check before you ever buy body armor is to go to the CJETC Body Armor Compliant Page.
For more information on the Body armor Compliant Products list, read our blog, What is the Compliant Products List (CPL)? Guide to Certification.
The second way to tell if a body armor is NIJ-Listed is to look at the back of the body armor plate.
Every plate that is NIJ-Listed will have the official seal of the NIJ. The NIJ-Listed Model mark will be displayed on the back of the armor plate.
If you don’t see this mark on the back of the plate, the NIJ has not recognized the plate as compliant.
Spartan Armor Industries
Spartan Armor Industries is another good company in the body armor industry that we have a lot of respect for. Many of its products are NIJ-Listed and with the amount of products they sell, it’s more impressive they have so many NIJ-Listed products.
When we compare Spartan Level III body armor with our best Level III+ body armor, it’s not even close when it comes to the weight of the plate.
