I found a carrier I want, shellback banshee rig

, its slim and not "bulky" Has main plate front/back and room for a few magazines on front.

Does anyone know of a decent place to buy hard armor

I heard of AR500 armor and it looks decent, NIJ rating.

DKX MAX III is the lightest available. I just got the plates and Diamondback carrier for under $1300. Added 3 HSG mag pouches, hydration pack, radio holder, and blow out kit. All multicam and ready to rock! I am actually using it for work, so I had to be fully outfitted!

I am cheap lol, this is more for "prepper" I am not going to be using it for work, and likely not to use it, but better to have it. If I was working I would go with the DKX stuff.
