Tactical Body Armor Carrier and Ballistic Panels

chopper duke · 08-05-2008, 05:05 PM

First off, the POLICE Patches ARE NOT INCLUDED! They are only there for representation and will be taken off. They're Velcro.

This would be perfect for Mil-Sim types of games. It is an ABA (American Body Armor) Tactical Raid/ Entry Vest with Safariland Panels. The panels are from '93 I believe and wouldn't recommend this as an actual duty vest. The Vest features four (4) pockets and a flashlight holder.

All four pockets are on the front of the vest. Starting from the left side, the first pocket is for holding a radio, but can be used for holding other items. The second pocket has a flap and three (3) elastic straps that can be used for holding handgun magazines (Tac 8?). The third pocket is a smaller, open pocket that can be used for holding smaller (Stinger) flashlights or handcuff keys, etc. The fourth Pocket also has a flap, but is bigger than the second and has three (3) elastic straps. Two in the back that can be used to hold rifle magazines (possible 50 rd pods, don't know) and a third elastic strap in front of the two that spans the width of the pocket. On the far right hand side is the flashlight holder for bigger flashlights (Maglights, Streamlight XP20’s, etc).

Again, the Police Patches are for SHOW ONLY and WILL NOT be included. These can be purchased almost anywhere by Law Enforcement individuals.

The vest is in immaculate condition with no rips, tears or snags and the panels have never been shot, Thankfully!!

GONE AND SOLD ON EBAY

PB trades are always welcome. Offer anything, just no SP.

Only things I'm really looking for is a Left Feed cocker body, (can be anything from body to full cocker, we'll work out particulars) and an ARMSON OEG Sight.

Now for the Paintball Porn:

Just a heads up. You may want to check on laws as the panels (even though old) may not be able to be sold to non leo's/civillians.

Well, I wondered about that, but I see them on eBay all the time. I know most states tack on extra penalties for using one in a crime.

I'm pretty sure it's ok for civilians to own/ buy them (50 cent comes to mind) just not use them in a crime.

as long as you aren't a felon, it's legal to own, and wear.

if you commit a serious crime in armour, enjoy lots of extra prison.

body armor is one thing-what about armored automoblies?

You can not own body armor designed in a DOD contract; IE SAPI plates. Most states do not allow hard plates to be worn by civilians.

As a side note, I wish I could think up a good reason for this to show up at the door. I am sure my parents would love to see that hanging in the closet right before I leave for my new dorm.

you really don't need a GOOD reason! Tell your parents its so you don't get hurt playing. Your mom would appreciate that

It is absurd that anyone would tell anyone that it is illegal for them to protect themselves from gun fire =/

Everyone remember that when you vote for people. Geesh golley.

I'd love to see a reference, that doesn't only cite NJ or CA law.

There are some weird laws about it, for instance CT requires FTF transactions at purchase, unless it's a LEO purchaser.

8. The SAPIs offered for sale by defendant ST. CLARENCE D. AVERY
were manufactured pursuant to a contract awarded by the Defense Logistics Agency. The SAPIs were lightweight body armor designed to be used with the OTVs to provide greater protection against assault rifle ammunition, and could be legally possessed and used only by the United States military. They were not permitted to be sold to the public as surplus equipment.

The old DOD link is down, but that was the case decision that they still go off of.
