GILLIAM TECHNICAL SERVICES (GTS) - EMERALD ISLE, NC - UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. GTS has been in the armor business for 18 years. We usually sell out within days of listing additional batches. The NEW NIJ 0101.07 standard is now active.

We have tested against every 0101.07 RF2 threat (see test reports in the product images). If they cannot - the plate is NOT an RF2 plate meeting the NIJ's latest standard: 0101.07. BEWARE of dangerous behavior by online body armor sellers advertising super light plates without NIJ test reports!!! True RF1 plates requires a min of THREE passing shots (44mm or below BFD) of 7.62 x 51mm M80, M193, AND 7.62 x 39mm MSC!

RF2 requires the same passing reports, PLUS the M855. Unless they have professional lab reports showing these passing calibers, you are taking an unnecessary chance!

We have even tested the polyethylene backing material we place behind our ceramic at the HG2 level! Please make SURE that these plates will fit before ordering. This model complies with NIJ Standard 0101.06 for Ballistic Resistance of Body Armor. This model complies with NIJ Standard 0101.07 for Ballistic Resistance of Body Armor. We don't sell 6 month old stock. All of our plates are less than 30 days old and BRAND NEW. Latest ballistics test included (6) shots against the powerful 7.62mm x 51mm M80 projectile.
