Tactical Respirator - FAQs
Ops-Core SOTR vs. SOTR LITE?
Both masks offer an incredible middle ground between no breathing protection and a massive, full-face respirator that limits mobility and sight. The primary advantage of the SOTR over the SOTR Lite is that it is compatible with helmets and other gear. It also comes with two filters, meaning it will last longer and be more effective.
Why would the Ops-Core SOTR be helpful for a civilian?
This mask offers pros for more than just military personnel and law enforcement. A shooting range is one of the many civilian-centric places where this mask may be useful. Shooting ranges have massive ventilation systems. If any of those fail, you go to a shooting range without one or at an outdoor shooting range; the air can quickly fill with tons of particulates, building materials, and other hazards. They can also protect against long-term threats like asbestos and lead, which are useful for entering potentially harmful environments like basements, attics, or abandoned buildings.
What does the SOTR protect against?
Lead
Asbestos
Mold
Bacteria
Dust
Lubricant Mist
Explosive/Gunfire Residue
Fentanyl exposure
The default filter and the official replacement filters on Atomic Defense stop PM10 particles with a filtration efficiency against airborne particulates, including Lead, Asbestos, lubricant mist, and explosive gunfire residue.

----------
General Products:
Must be within 30 days of package delivery.
No need to purchase a shipping label! Atomic Defense will give you a pre-paid one.
Ballistic and Bulletproof Products:
Most companies will not accept any returns on ballistic or bulletproof items. We offer recertification as a courtesy.
Must be within 30 days of package delivery.
No need to purchase a shipping label! Atomic Defense will give you a pre-paid one.
A re-certification cost of 20% applies to returns of ballistic and bulletproof products.
The 20% recertification covers the cost of ensuring the armor is safe. Usually starting with X-Raying the armor for cracks underneath the coating, inspection for damage, and water damage testing. Without this 20%, we would not be able to offer returns on armor.
There is no way for us to know how or if it was used once shipped, and we have to consider them unsafe until retested, inspected and certified.
Exchanges and non-ballistic products do not have a re-certification cost.
Helmet and SOTR both fit well. Everything as expected from AD. AS always.

Great product well built.
One of the better built plate carriers I have come across. The quick release system is just that quick but also heavy duty unlike a lot of plate carriers on the market. Well worth the money.
My helmet was delivered in a re-used box (see photo). This gave me trepidation as to what I'd find inside. I was expecting it to be in a new, clean plastic bag. It was wrapped in bubble wrap with paper packing. It fits perfectly with the tan pads, although the headband suspension presses into my head, just behind my ears. It's almost painful at first but the discomfort decreases with time but doesn't completely go away. Cosmetically, it's a beautifully manufactured helmet. There's only one tiny sticker on the inside that specifies its NIJ protection level rating. I suspect it's made in China. I just hope it provides the ballistic head protection I need should I ever need it.
I received my helmet quickly and the quality is outstanding. I was able to adjust the helmet with the added padding to fit my head comfortably. This is a better helmet than I ever had while I served. Thank you!
Nice product, well built and ready for use . Great design, 2x5 is plenty of coverage. Good protection for those who don't want to wear a vest , or are unable to , such as Your Children . Thank You , Atomicdefence .
Great customer service. Helmet is of great quality with great fit. Exceeded expectations for the price. Purchased after checking with other retailers and very glad I purchased from Atomic Defense.
Exactly what was expected and arrived quick. One thing is I have a big head and had to remove some of the second layer of padding in areas to fit right. After that perfect...........This review was in no way influenced by the 3 Jolly Ranchers that were included for free.
I can’t say enough good things about this company. I bought these, didn’t need them after all, and returned them hassle free. The option for a refund or store credit is painless, and the customer service here is excellent. Timely response and friendly. I recommend this product for it’s ease of use, and Atomic for being excellent.
I looked up what the navy seals use and this glove came highly recommended. I can honestly say it lives up to the reviews. Index, middle and thumb fingers being exposed made it very easy to shoot and reload my magazines all with the gloves on. The increased grip gloves offer already improved my accuracy from recoil control by about 30%. I even broke several of my handguns down field stripping for cleaning and manipulation of misfiring drills and was surprised at how much the gloves didn’t restrict or delay me. Definitely my new favorite alternative from the full hand and finger gloves I’ve used in the past. So comfortable I even leave them on in regular work activities daily and hardly notice I’m wearing them. Highly durable and well worth the very fair price.
Pictures don’t do it justice… When i got my hands on this helmet I was VERY impressed ! The weight takes a little getting used to for the average citizen but it will definitely protect your head from small arms fire.. It comes with extra padding to adjust/improve the fit.
Plenty of “hook n loop”..
Be prepared with this awesome helmet !
