Hey, I'm deployed right now. I'll be returning to my job as a Deputy here in a month or so and I'm in the market for new armor. Any suggestions? I'm willing to drop a decent amount to get the best. I deployed the day I finished probation so I still had the department isued stuff. I want to get a good set to last me a while. I was looking at Dragon Skin but thats a little too much ( about 5000) for now. lol Any ways, let me know what you think. Oh, I want atleast IIIA.

I just started wearing a Point Blank Hi-Lite IIIA w. Thor's Sheild. I like it. I think it was about $850.

+1 I like it also...mine needs replacing this year....and the new IIIA is as light at the old IIA armor....worth the extra $100.

As long as it meets the NIJ's new 0101.06 standard, you should be GTG.  I'm partial to Second Chance, but I don't think they have any .06 certified stuff yet.

I have the PPI and I'm pretty impressed with the fit and quality.  I have a "speed plate" also.  I have their ceramic plates for my active shooter setup so I guess I'm a little biased.
