    I'm more like Aubrey Filmore....I'm like legging it....preferably without breaking wind.

    I'm in favour of body armour, but making myself a smaller, unpredictable target works for me too.

    Seems to me that if some one is wearing body armor he may as well be wearing a big red target on himself .more prepared to be an aggressor than some one not so protected.

    No, I don't agree with above point of "wearing body armor he may as well be wearing a big red target on himself " there are concealable
    Vest options also which can be wore inside and no one will be able to get that what you are wearing.

    My life is in the hands of God, not the hands of man-made displays of a lack of faith. That said, there have been...and will be...times when my faith in God proves to be lacking...usually when the s h t f. ;)

    My Eagle Industries Scalable Plate Carrier. IIIA Soft Armor + III Hard Armor. I changed a few things since this was taken but it's more or less the same as you see here. I'm about to do a major overhaul of this setup once I can get the custom holster I want and the HSP-D3CR Heavy. Probably weighs near 40lbs. as is so that's another reason for my desire to upgrade. Some polyethylene plates are also on my shopping list.
