I’ve had the best luck with eBay for stuff like that. I got 2 ar500 plates off there for $85 shipped. As well as just other big and or liquid stuff other places won’t ship.

Cost me like $30 at LAPG and about $45 at Botach. Bulletproof it wanted about $40 I think with their rebranded Hesco 4410s I think it was. RMA armament I think wanted like $60-70. I live near Anchorage though so if you're further north or somewhere less accessible by land I wouldn't be surprised if it cost more.

T.Rex Arms has the L210s often. When I last looked they were
More for the plates, cheap shipping. Comes out close to the same. Buy from whoever has them in stock. [ETA: Alaskageown was correct. They were $370 for the plates, not $270. I blame my fat fingers and tiny little potato keyboard. But still a good price w shipping.] |

RMA ships plates up via UPS and its about $70-80. Not great but also not horrible to support a vet-owned and reliable business

I would use some sort of woodland camo one(and do). It’s easier to put over whites over it. Not to mention unless you are in the tundra there is trees around that will still be green/brown/etc in the winter.
