How Do I Order a Soft Bulletproof Vest Online?
All you need to do is choose your size and checkout. It's that easy. Shipping is inexpensive — even free — and orders arrive in just a few days for U.S. customers. You can read our shipping policy for more information.
What Type of Bullet or Round the Tactical Bullet Proof Vest Won’t Protect You From:
This soft body armor vest is rated 3A (IIIA). That means it will stop everything from 9mm, .22L, and .44mag to 12 gauge slugs. If you want or need extra protection to stop assault rifles, you should add one or two of our level 3 (III) or level 4 (IV) hard armor insert plates. These higher-level plates stop assault rifles and armor-piecing rounds. You can browse our insert plates online to find upgrade options for your vest.
What Kind of bulletproof plates can I add to this vest?
This ballistic vest allows for level 3 and 4 armor inserts. They can be inserted on the inside of the vest at the top via an easy-access Velcro pouch. Our level 3 and 4 inserts block up to 5.56 NATO, 7.62, .308, .30-06, .50 cal, and several other types of ammunition.
What Can I Compare This Soft Body Armor To?
This vest is equal to other police and military 3A (IIIA) bulletproof products. Level IIIA is the highest category for soft body armor and the lowest level that we will carry. Our premier bulletproof vest is better than levels 2 (II) and 2A (IIA), as well as any of the lower levels.
Who Can Buy This Level 3A Armor?
Essentially anyone over the age of 18 can purchase a bulletproof vest in the USA, Canada, and other countries. Civilians in the US state of Connecticut are the only people who automatically cannot. Connecticut customers will need to have a different billing/shipping location for the order. Additionally, individuals with felony convictions may not purchase body armor.
For further information on whether or not your country will allow you to purchase bulletproof vests or other armor, you can seek information through customs and enforcement.
Are Bulletproof Vests Illegal or Legal?
In short: the answer is yes, they are legal. Most states allow residents over 18 to wear body armor. However, if you are a convicted felon in the United States, you cannot own or use body armor. This applies to every US state. Connecticut residents may purchase and own body armor, but all transactions must occur in person.
What Kind of Materials Is This Soft Body Armor Made Of?
We make our vests with Aramid or PE (UHMWPE). All of our vests come with our upgraded PE to ensure the armor is easily hidden under clothing.
What Part of the Body Will This Soft Body Armor Cover and Protect?
The vest will protect your full torso and sides. The bulletproof insert covers the entire body area that the outside carrier holds. Additional or upgraded panels can enhance protection to the areas our vests cover. For further reference, see the images above.
Where Can I Wear a Bulletproof Vest?
It depends on what country you are in, but if you are in the US the answer is anywhere. You can wear this bulletproof vest to work as long as your employer permits it to be on their property. With it being a concealable vest it easily fits under clothing. These vests are legal for air travel, but you must check them or pack them into a carry-on bag.
Why Was This Bulletproof Vest Removed from Amazon?
Amazon made a political decision to distance itself from anything related to guns. This affected all body armor companies.
Who Does This Vest Fit?
Just about everyone. The adjustable Velcro straps make the vest easily adaptable to any body size and shape. We carry options to fit any adult shirt size, so choose one that matches the clothing you wear.
What Types of People Can Buy a Bulletproof Vest?
Our bulletproof vests can be bought, bought for, and worn by men, women, children, students, teachers, and everyone who wants to stay safe from a bullet... or multiple.
Will This Premier Bulletproof Body Armor Bulletproof Me?
This soft body armor and the inserts we offer will stop almost any known close-range ballistic weapon in military or civilian use, including pistols (common rounds like 9mm and .44 Magnum)and shotguns. If you are looking to stop assault rifles or sniper rifles, please add one of our higher-rated insert panels to your order.
Understanding Level IIIA Body Armor
The National Institute of Justice (NIJ) has various requirements for body armor. Generally, the NIJ categorizes body armor by the types of ammunition it can stop. For a piece of armor to qualify for level IIIA under standard 0101.06, it must withstand at least six shots from .44 Magnum Semi Jacketed Hollow Point (SJHP) and .357 SIG FMJ Flat Nose rounds — some of the strongest available for handguns.
At Atomic Defense, we test our Level 3A Body Armor to reach NIJ requirements and surpass them. Our in-house product testers fire additional rounds at each plate to see how many consecutive shots they can withstand. We also perform additional testing using 12-gauge shotguns to confirm reliable protection against multiple close-range firearms. We encourage you to contact us online to discuss our testing procedures or view certificates.
This level 3A body armor is a modern upgrade to our older armor without any compromises. This is the bulletproof vest for you. It's the complete package. Here's a preview of what we test for to certify all of our bulletproof armor:
- Comfortable fit (all body types): Featuring a smooth interwoven cloth-like cover to match any and all body shapes, these vests are comfortable for anyone to wear. You'll benefit from full coverage, safety, and protection. All of our vests include cooling pads sewn into the interior to keep the vest and your body temperature cool.
- Level 3A certified vest: This vest blocks and provides barriers to stop various pistol calibers from rifles, knives, and high-powered airguns. It's your number one protection in a life-or-death situation. Wear it under or over your clothing to cover both front and back areas.
- TSA & airplane ready: Each vest features certified standalone PEAD UHMWPE protection that can be used when traveling on an airplane, in the USA and almost all countries in the world.
