Re: Vests?

Uuugh,

AR500 is not armor steel it is wear plate. It just happens to stop bullets sometimes.

Try Armox600 or BP633.

Re: Vests?

Notice what happens to people that accept kickbacks or conspire to do so? They are in JAIL. I know about the GAO report intimately I was involved in its formulation on the periphery. This thread has drifted way out of its original lane. Suffice it to say I have forgotten more about the personal armo...

Re: Vests?

I think some folks are missing important points. First, Jake: if the plates you have aren't standalone rated, they won't stop anything worth crap - I don't think you're following what Pinnacle is saying. Plates that aren't standalone do not work without soft armor under them. Furthermore, plates an...

Re: Vests?

Not correct. The threat for ESAPI is unpublished due to its sensitivity. What can be said is they are not a good answer for typical needs but they are a good solid answer for the battlefield threat matrix. The exact testing methods are only sensitive to politicians and government officials looking ...

Re: Big fixed blade knife

Hey, truth be told, I have an OLD Schrade trapper - small thin locking blade - sharp as a scalpel and made from real carbon steel. I bought 2 of them when they were still made in Ellenville, NY - this is the knife that I take into the woods hunting that gets the bulk of the work - basically it is ht...

Re: Can anyone recommend a good pepper spray?

I think siracha would be pretty good for close quarters/enclosed spaces.... easy squeeze bottle and single stream pattern equals low risk of collateral damage. Not to mention it's delicious. :lol: That would be total misery in the eyes. (Someone would roll up on you and dip a spring roll into your ...

Re: SIG 556 question

The 556 has been around for a long time and it is one of the worlds best rifles... Not at all even close to an AR. Totally different and not too much more than an AR of comperable capability in cost.

Re: Sanity check on first 9mm load

I'd load 20 at 5.1, 5.3, 5.5 and 5.7. Get your chrono out and start with the low loads and see what you get. Check you primers on each batch as you go and watch your accuracy. You might get two loads that shoot similiar out of one gun yet another gun my have a preference for one of the two or even ...

Re: 9mm load for any pistol

Again noted.

Get close without exceeding published loads. There are hundreds of combinations that do this.
