That aside, why would you leave your house? And if I have to walk my way out of a bad situation im not going to fucking be bringing plates.

This is why you have a gang of friends with equal gear that matches yours. That way you have the appearance of a cohesive and well trained unit (you might just be one)

If you're getting hit left and right in a solo shtf situation, you dun fucked up real bad and steel/ceramic/etc isnt going to save you.

Either you're shit at this gunfighting thing, someone already got a good lock on you, you got flanked, you're outnumbered, or your cover sucks ass.

And unless you're some legit operator or with armed friends, ar500 or ceramic won't really matter

You gonna tell us about your all-mighty ceramic and how it can stop the very fist of god himself or are you just going to spew more buzz-words and memes about AR500?
>>
>>29520744
There's plenty wrong with it. Mainly how high velocity non ap ammo can go right through it.

That coating doesn't last for more than a few shots anyways, after which you still get spall. Why not just buy ceramics in the first place? Armorwear plates are $150, Skd $180, bulletproofme $200. Ceramics aren't that fucking expensive
>>
>>29522588
Actually "level III" AR500 plates are defeated by 55gr m193. Run of the mill, very common very cheap 5.56 will punch through it. As will a bunch of high velocity hunting rounds. "Level IV" AR500 sorta almost performs on par with level III ceramics, at the same price but are way heavier. AR500 plates also aren't NIJ certified, at best they're "independently tested" meaning they meet part of NIJ level III or IV criteria, but not enough to actually get NIJ certified. There's really no point in getting AR500 plates. I say this as someone who bought a set without bothering research it, now they get taped to the back of my car's headrests when shtf.
>>
>>29522588

Getting hit multiple times in any plate is going to be bad. AR500 is no worse than ceramics in that situation.

>>29520070

Let's say I don't have friends nearby, I am bugging in, and there is an armed group (4-6 people) trying to bust into my home.

Now, plate carriers have mobility in mind, but as I am just defending my home, I can afford to sacrifice mobility for larger protection.

How heavy is an average plate? Can I make a full "plate armor" that covers my body without over-encumbering myself? Maybe leave the arms out so I can actually aim, but small and large plates would cover from my neck down to my knees (unlucky if I get shot in the head; that's life).

If you think my idea is retarded, please be kind enough to explain why.

It's only because he aimed center mass that you were hit in the neck at all.
>>
>>29522711
If your defending your home, and want something beefier, Try making sandbags
>>
>>29522851

But I still want some mobility. Unless I can make sandbags all around the place, I am fuarked if they plan to flank me or attack me in multiple places.

I still want to take the initiative as the defender (choose where I want to defend in the home rather than stay in fixed sandbag locations).

Good idea though.
>>
You can die just as easily with cheap gear, might as well spend the money, if you have it, on some cool toys while people still pretend the money is worth something.
>>
>>29522861
make sandbag trenches to restrict an attackers movements.
