We’ve been working on a video for a while now, focusing on keeping each clip concise and to the point. Personal protection is a dynamic subject that continues to evolve. Although this first part of our presentation focuses on bulletproof vests, it’s just the beginning, and the second part will provide additional information. Our aim is not only to address your questions about personal protection but also to debunk misconceptions perpetuated by Hollywood-style myths about tactical gear. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the video! #PersonalProtection #BulletproofVests #DebunkingMyths
Now let us go over NIJ ballistic classifications:

- Type III+ Unofficial standard offered by some vendors, conducting their own tests, adding protection against newer FN 5.7 and 9mm civil defence rounds.
