So, I've been doing further research into armor, and talking to some vendors. HighCom Armor seems to be pretty highly recommended as well, and I've been emailing them some questions and they are VERY responsive. I do have some additional questions, related to plates now, instead of just helmets.
I currently have no curve, old school steel plates that I got from an Arfcom group buy a long time ago. I have them in my TAG Banshee, and when it's slick, it weighs around 21lbs, and is not very comfortable. I want to do one of two things, and I'd like input on it.
Ideally, I'd like to slim down and get multi-curve plates. Again, keeping in mind I'm trying to do this on a cop budget. My other option is to get plates that are multicurve, and not worry about the weight. This depends on comfort and how they ride though. I've never worn a set of multicurve, or even single curve plates. Would they fit so much more better/comfortably, that the weight wouldn't be as bad? Or would saving even 5lbs, and going with a MC setup be well worth my while?
Thanks to all that are participating in this discussion. I know some of the information is redundant, but it's nice to have it reiterated by people.
