advice on buying armor (vests/bracers,etc) /k/ommando 07/27/2020 (Mon) 20:45:29 No. 13
what should you look for? what's the best long-term investment? I was reading https://canarmor.ca/how-to-buy-a-bulletproof-vest/ which mentions at end "Get a replacement vest every five years" because "After a couple of years, the material inside of the vest starts to break down" complete ugh... these things cost anywhere from 300 to 1000 bucks, I was looking for bidecade not biannual investments. Are there materials that don't degrade so fast?
>>13 >every five years It sounds like a load of bullshit manufacturers say to get people to keep buying them regularly. Obviously try to keep it clean/dry and don't store it in the sun or at high temperatures since kevlar can degrade over time and those things can speed it up. Either way if you are concerned about longevity then just get a steel plate instead.

>>13 Heres some advice OP. Go fuck yourself. Never make a thread without an image. It dirties up the catalogue
