and a Phoenix level IIIa bulletproof vest in tan with soft plate pocket and trauma plate!! Kevlar inserts should fit in my Ranger Green cover I made a while back. This means I don't have to call any hits that come from a pistol, mp9, thompson, etc. :P

You realize that a three round burst from an M1A1/M1928 contains an insane ammount of kinietic energy, right?

The rounds wouldn't penetrate your $800 vest, but they would knock you on your hiney and break most of your ribs, potentially sending shards of bone into your vital organs which could eventually kill you.

$800 is not a lot in the realm of real steel.

Level IIIa isn't rated for rifle rounds which is why I said pistols and a short selection of popular "smg's" if you will, that shoot pistol caliber rounds. Besides, it was "tounge in cheek", "in jest", a joke. But yes I have that vest and no it is not used, it retails for $700-950 depending on how good your interweb skillz are and is usually only sold to LE/Mil. If I don't end up selling it, it will be reserved for security details and part of my bail out kit.

I have access to more of these at a great price as well as bulletproof blankets, more taclights and other assorted LE supplies. If anyone is seriously interesed pm or email me.

Just arrived, Got me a box of MAG 190rd M14 Mids, as well as some of that sexy MOLLE goodness to carry them in. I can't wait for the gun itself to arrive, although that will probably be as I'm leaving friday.

Acually, it's C Taylor's pic/foot.

I stole it from his thread.

Charging handle is on the right side.

I always thought my left foot was my right foot and my right foot was my left foot. I thought that was just normal.
