    Amen, it's great!

    Spalling sucks. But, I'd rather deal with that then a new hole. I don't even know what I'd use that hole for, though some of our fellow members might have ideas


    More seriously though if you're just a guy looking for armor, soft armor is the way to go. Way more comfortable. But, buy what you think you'll use I say.
    So I was driving home from the range and I noticed that the scent of warm steel, burnt gunpowder and lukewarm coffee combined and smelled oddly of... Peanut butter?! Man, the Hoppe's is going to my head.

      The coating will eventually fail, but it last longer than most would expect.

        Bullet hits you in the neck and above, your dead anyway.

        Bullet hits you in the groin area, your intestines bleed and you slowly die.

          This is true but covering vitals makes sense at times... But plates in most cases is overkill and if you need plates I'd want ones that aren't gonna spall into my throat and nuts.

            All it takes is one guy claiming spall to ruin a good armor thread.
