My dad told me growing up it’s better to have and not need than to need and not have . I have lived by that .

If the government tells you that you don't need it, or they want to regulate it. You need it.

[BUZZKILLJRJR]

If cops and the military need it then we need it. That's how the second amendment works. Thank you for your service brother! Subbed!

The first time I regretted giving away all of my body armor as I retired, was the first time I went to a public range in twenty five years. And, the whole time, watching some of the gun handling and shooting, wishing I was wearing some.

If you think you need body armor, you do. Doesn't really matter what anyone else thinks.

[jimsturt]

The answer is yes. It was a purchase I made during the 2020 "Summer of Love". Who would have thought we'd ever live in a country where anarchists can roam the streets and burn down houses?!

The most straightforward dude in every subject matter. Much appreciated 🇺🇸

“Get fragged in the eyes and the neck, those are placed you do not want to get fragged at” ! Very true

I’m a former police officer I have 35 years of firearms training and as a trainer, I also over the 35 years have washed the progression of body armor improve over that time, and I would like to call myself a novice or well educated body armor person. the same with firearms I have the same years of training, and I have to say that you are one of the most informative knowledgeable people I have found on YouTube. Anyone who comes across your channel and is thinking about body armor should follow your lead. As I want your video I know everything you’re gonna say ahead of time with a few surprises that I did not know here in there. I’d like to congratulate you for educating this old dog with some new tricks. Good job man.

I am really taking a liking to this dude and his content. As a former soldier, I wrongly thought all SEALs were arrogant bastards, but Chad seems really down to earth and comes across as a fine fellow. The takes on our "government's excesses is so on target it makes all the sense in the world. More please!

The rubberized coating on the steel plate helps with the Spalding and fragmentation. It is a major improvement on steel

[raybrendaglaze]

We the civilian class appreciate your knowledge and teachings. A person or group of individuals is only as good as their coach / coaches. You are one of many that have put your life on the line for us to live the lives we have. You are loved and appreciated beyond measure. Thank you!

I got steel plates a couple of years ago. They are definitely heavy & uncomfortable, but better than nothing!

[phillipwaters]

I would like to add that the “bed liner” type coating on the steel plates is there for the purpose of catching fragments and reducing spall on the back of it. Some companies call the coating frag wrap. Thanks for the video, Chadd! I really like them all and always learn something that I didn’t know!

I used to manufacture Ball Ceramic & Polyurethane plate products in TN. The ceramic balls were made by Coors in Golden Colorado. These products were not fragile and would not crack like the solid ceramic plates. After seeing the results at the test range, I'm a firm believer in ceramic protection. However, I run with Duritium plates only because they fit in my carrier and conform to my body better. LOL - like you said, I'm more nervous at the gun range than I am at the grocery store. Be aware of your surroundings and stay safe in this crazy time.

[amshootez]

Fuck yes we need armor. Even if just for training, level III is mandatory (& should be) in most tac-rifle classes, & IIIA for tac-pistol. Train like you fight, fight like you train.

[jaydemay]

Side plates are a must. A junctional hit is hard to treat in the field.

[paullee]

I run RMA class 4 ceramics as the price point is easier to justify for your average every day white collar civilian. I really like Agilite's philosophy when it comes to body armor for civilians- its basically like a reserve parachute. You will rarely ever have to use it and chances are that you'll go through your entire life never having to use it, but if you find yourself in a seriously bad spot, having access to it can really save your life.
