>Anybody sell cheap plates that don't take forever to ship?

That was quick
>I'm going to go through with spending my money of actually buying a plate carrier and plates that I will never ever use
>but I'll half ass it halfway and not get ceramic plates because I just want to play soldier for 7 minutes around my house, take some pictures with it on then chuck it in my closet never to be used again
I will never grasp this meme.

Well, if you have a chest rig for carry ammo, might as well throw plates in them to protect yourself when the ATF comes to kill your dog.
News media will say your wearing armor even if it's just a fly fishing vest.

>spend $900 on a ceramic IV plate
>ATF shows up and shoots you in the chest five times
>plate breaks on the fourth shot since it's fucking ceramic, you die
sounds like a great plan, boss
think I'll stick with multihit steel

>multihit steel
If you're actually expecting a fight at your home, you already fucked up. You're a fucktard if you're willing to "fight" when they have you boxed in.
Forget the plates, wake up and stop living in fantasy land.

But remember anon, they'll all have 20 inch ARs so your plates wont work! Or they'll have M2 AP! Or M855a1! Or California legal 270!

They both have their ups and downs. The main factor is context.

I really think the people who invented dragon skin stole the idea from or at least read Leo Frankowski's Cross Time Engineer book series.
>expecting to be hit even once and still retain combat effectiveness
Or
>expecting to be hit and have someone to drag you to safety and then to the hospital

It takes 8 shots of m855 in the rating process for lvl iv
And by that point, the anti spall lining is gone on the steel plate, and now you're fucking dead
I just have one of their soft inserts for a backpack. I'm a mall ninja like that.
