Sure do look like it to me based on the specs. I think others bought them and said they were just rebranded L210 plates.
MWA will often give a coupon for first time buyers. Make sure to check that out before placing order. |

That's actually a pretty good deal. I paid around $160 a plate last year for L210s

They have some other good deals. I've been posting them around since they did a killer sort-of group buy for us in the other thread.
They have the Lancer kit which is a full torso coverage plate carrier, 12x18 soft armor front and back, plus side inserts, and a pair of Hesco 4401's rebranded as Proguard IV's for $297.95 shipped with USA15 code. https://midwestarmor.com/products/lancer-active-shooter-kit/ I've talked to the sales guy a few times since the group buy and they have a nice slick plate carrier in the works. They might do another special sale for Arfcom that would be a plate/carrier combo when they get it finished. Hoping they may include a III or III+ option in addition to the IV and STX plates. |

View Quote I held off because of what's going on. Maybe they'll rebrand some 3610s. That would be sweet. |

Picked up the Lancer Active shooter kit for under $300 w/ code USA15.
Thanks for posting that up mate. Now I got hard armor for my Scarab and another rig for anyone else who may end up needing it or I can probably sell it to cover some of the costs. |

I ordered 4/6 and they've been in production ever since. They lied.

Not affiliated with Midwest Armor but just to let you guys know that I (distributor) was notified by Hesco that distancing measures at the factory and unprecedented demand has slowed things down. All my deliveries prior to COVID-19 were 4-6 weeks but now we're looking at 6-8 weeks.

These should definitely fit into a Spiritus LV119 correct?
I have an LV119 in Large and ordered these plates about a week ago now in the 10x12 shooters cut. |
|
|
I went with the large because I had the opportunity to try one on....size large LV119 and size 1 cummerbund and it fit perfect. My body had medium plates in it but if I recall correctly they were sapi cut plates.
Aside from having been able to try one on before purchasing, I also used to have a Ferro Slickster in medium, and that just felt waaaaay too small on me. I'm 5'7 about 180lbs....not fat but not as fit as I used to be lol. And I plan on getting the new Ferro FCPC v5 and have heard from others sized similiar to me they went with a medium as the v5 medium I believe is a tad bigger than their slickster medium....I may of course be wrong, but trying to do as much homework and get as much feedback from others as possible. |

FYI, Kota Outfitters has the 210s in stock now. I just bought a set.....
|
|
Damn! They must've sold out real fast. I just checked the website right now an their plates say OOS.
|
|
|
I just skimmed over the site but didn't see anything about "Notify Me" when in stock or email stock notification button on the site. Tried reloading a few times but guess just gonna have to keep my eye on the site throughout the day.
Just sucks because I ordered for the first time my 2nd set of plates from Midwest Armor, they're rebranded Hesco L210 plates and they say I think like 8-10 week process time, so I've got a ways to go playing with my thumbs till they show up. |
|
Yeah, it was really weird. I’ve been watching the site and my email and just happened to stumble on at the right time. They had the 4401s in stock as well. I didn’t get an email either. They gave me a tracking number already, But I don’t know how long they will actually take to receive.

I ordered these L210s on 05/28 from Kota and they arrived today. They also came with a nice 2a challenge coin, which I didn’t expect. I am very pleased with both the plates and the company.

Correct. Over 11 weeks here. Anybody get theirs yet? |

I checked the status and they said they'll be expediting shipping in July as soon as they get them.
|

If you use the code GEARUP you get a discount. I ordered a set a few weeks ago and they said it would ship in 6-8 weeks. I'm a bit worried since I'm moving at the end of July.

I wouldn't be too worried guys, plates are being manufactured as fast as possible.
Better than playing whack a mole and trying to check out with dealers who only list a few plates in stock at a time just to build the hype. |
|
I just got an email saying my plates were ready and they just needed to verify my identity. I had to scan my driver's license. Wasn't too thrilled about that but oh well. Hopefully they will ship soon.
|
|
Well, I guess my plates weren't ready since I just got an email saying they were in production. I hope to get them soon. Now I need a plate carrier.

View Quote Same here....got an email a few weeks back for the drivers license verification....and then yesterday morning got an email stating they are, "Now In Production". And from other's responses in similar threads, some have had theirs "In Production" for up to a month! I've mentioned this in those threads: Subscribe to the notification on T. Rex Arms site for their Hesco plates...sure might pay about $100 more ($375 total if I recall correctly), but I got the notification they were in stock, placed order, received in about a week vs. all other sites that say, "Lead Time"...."4-8 weeks"...etc etc etc. |

I'm also on who knows which month.....month 3 or 4 for some reloads from Good To Go Ammo...stated 4-6 week lead time, false! One guy is literally doing ALL the reloads by himself, not a "company" one would imagine with a staff running it. But 18 weeks "In Production"???? That's just ridiculous Attached File |

Hate to do it but, from this thread and others concerning MA it just seems like a bit of a hassle having to go through such a lengthy process with ETA this an ETA that kind of thing. But hopefully you an others in here get their orders this month or next for those of use that placed orders in May and even earlier than that. Anything longer than September......well idk what to say |

I just moved so hopefully they can update my shipping address. If not, I'll have to cancel.
