If the price is too good then there is a reason. Many or all of the Interceptor Armor is stolen. You will have guys in dark suits and sunglasses visiting your home. They were selling stolen armor on ebay and a lot of these guys got busted.

I have a feeling youre a troll so go away.

im seriously not a 'troll'...sorry to dissapoint...

I ask this because if you look under Equipment Exchange, I have some rifles for sale...I got an email from a guy offering exactly what I described....it kind of threw me off, because the armor seems to be much more valuable than a couple of my old military surplus rifles....

I ask this question because I dont know about it.....the only stupid question is the one that is not asked.

I'd be wary of buying used body armor without inspecting it first, especially so for govt issued items such as IBA vests as ARDOC pointed out.

So why would a guy try to trade you a set of IBA worth over $800 to you for a couple of CR rifles?

I passed on the offer...seemed a bit shady..especially after I read about all the stolen body armor, on like MSNBC, etc......its not worth it.

So if you knew the answer already why are you asking it again?

I got a near-new Interceptor with plates on ebay for $650. Unfortunately, it got swept away in a hurricane and eaten by crocodiles.
