Safeguard Body Armor Review

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


\”Are YOU Ready?\”

One of the cool things about owning this blog is that occasionally people will send me really awesome stuff to try out.  One of the latest items was sent to me by Safeguard Armor.  They wanted me to try out their Stealth Body Armor with a Threat Level II configuration, meaning that it will stop a 9 mm or .357 round.

Check out the chart below for the stats:

It will also stop  a knife stab.  How sweet is that?  The whole chart is on their Stealth page, so check it out and see what they have to offer.

What can I tell you about this vest?  First of all it’s way more comfortable than the old style flak jacket I used to wear back in the 80′s.  That thing was heavy and nearly killed me on various forced marches – especially in hot weather climates like Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and the southern U.S.

I wore the Stealth around for awhile and found it quite comfortable in cooler temperatures.  To be honest I hate anything on me in hot weather and this vest wouldn’t be any different; however, it would be a lot more comfortable than a flak jacket or some of the heavier armor they offer.  I was able to do pulls, push ups, and other forms of exercise without it slowing me down too much.  You definitely notice the difference, but this vest is light enough that you can still do hard physical activity without getting exhausted.

Is it really stealthy?  If you wear it under a sweatshirt or loose coat it’s unnoticeable.  Put it on under a t-shirt or something like that and people will be able to see it.

Can I Shoot You?

When I told a friend about it he said, “Cool!  Hey, can I shoot you?  That would be a great test for the blog.”  Now, I love writing for SHTF Blog and I’m crazy about all you folks out there reading this, but Dude!  Seriously?  Lean over her so I can smack you.  No.  You can’t shoot me.

But here’s a video of a guy who did shoot the vest – over a log, not on his body – and what he discovered.  He actually abuses the hell of the vest and it doesn’t let any of the bullets through.  He also takes a knife to it and it stops the knife attack as well.  He pretty much takes the vest apart and it’s quite interesting to see the “chain mail” underneath that helps stop the knife.

One thing I noticed is that when I poked the armor with my finger I could feel it, so I imagine if you’re shot or stabbed it’s still going to hurt quite a bit.  Which is a lot better than being dead of course.  I just wanted to point out that just because you’re wearing armor don’t think you can walk around getting in fights and not feel any pain if someone tries to do you in.

Over all it’s a nice piece of gear to have as part of my preps.  I don’t expect to ever get into a fire fight, but if the balloon goes up and things get ugly I at least have a slight edge wearing this vest.  And any edge is better than nothing at all right?
