AR500 Armor's Lightweight Level III+ body armor is an advanced, multi-hit capable personal body armor plate, and the lightest steel core body armor in the world! The light weight design coupled with a multi-curve contour and advanced shooters cuts makes this plate exceptionally ergonomic and can even be worn with soft body armor plates for enhanced ballistic and blunt force protection. At just 5.5 lbs. and capable of defeating threats from M193 and SS109 5.56 NATO rounds to M80 Ball 7.62x51 NATO, this plate is an easy choice.
Features:
This lightweight plate doesn't skimp on protection! Rated at III+, this plate is designed to defeat common Level III threats such as 7.62x39mm and 7.62x51mm M80 ball, as well as the notoriously hard to stop 5.56 NATO M193 ball and M855 that are not typically covered. This coverage comes at just 6.5 lbs. and a slim 0.21" thick. Add in advanced shooters cuts that make shouldering your rifle easier, and an ergonomic multi-curve contour that better conforms to the torso and the Lightweight Level III+ ASC body armor will be your new favorite.

Strong and Light
by Mike
I also have the heavier version and the swimmer's cut on this model makes a world of difference in both weight and mobility .
Nice plate!

These are nice. I flipped mine upside down with the wider section on the top and it covers more of your heart area. They aren’t very heavy and have a great bullet stoppage rating of what the main ammo people would use in some sort of civil unrest (ak, ar, 308, all handgun rounds etc)
Happy with my purchase.
