BODY ARMOR: The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly

This is a crazy great thread. Learning a lot! I am sure this question gets asked a lot, but at what height would people recommend going from 10x12 to 11x14? I am 6'1 and my son is 5'10. Medium build for me

I'm 6' and 10x12 seems to have adequate coverage..



Remember, there's a fine line between coverage and bulk, which can hinder movement and movement is what is going to help keep you from taking a round.. hopefully.

True true. Thanks!

Do it, well worth the price. I bought mine through TRex Arms, $375 shipped the next day.

The budget LA Police Gear Level III plates I used on the left, HESCO L210 on the right. Better fit, much thinner.

Wow. Will do!

Thanks for the photos. Good comparison shots.

To be fair the Hesco plates are 400% more money.. lol

I did the same.. bought the LAPD plate and then decided to go the Hesco route.. I went with the Ultra lights and the weight difference is nuts.. both Hesco plates weigh less than than one LAPG

The price hurts.. but it fades over time.. lol

Trex suggests from "clavicle notch to belly button" for height. Some other sites suggest from "at or just below the clavicle notch" to "a few inches or so above the belly button."

Picked up a couple Slingsters... of course Slicksters are OOS at 8am.

Nice !

They only restocked one color and one size of Slickster IIRC. I’m pretty sure if I tried squeezing into a Med... I’d just be exchanging it.
