Carrying and body armor

[Caster]

I see you coming in that get up......I'm running as far away as I can as fast as I can.

Uhh yeah. Getting beat to death by a forging hammer and a guy looking like that is what nightmare are made of. Edited February 3, 2014 by Caster

Is the guy on the left wearing spectacles of solar reduction +5?

Is it weird if I also carry frag grenades on my plate carrier when I go out to Wally World? :tinfoil:

 

If I have to go somewhere where I feel like I need body armor - I don't go to that place.

If I had the $2500 the base model of that cost, I'd buy it just to see peoples reactions while I walked around in it at Walmart with a 24 lb hammer.

Yep. Though I think Elf magic makes them +15 Tapatalk ate my spelling.

I carry tactical tic-tacs.

I'll see those tic-tacs and raise you a paddywhack.


That's what you call a stout club used for the harder headed Irish. A paddywhack.














Said the Irishman with the hard head. ;)

Screw you guys, I wear custom leather armor from Prince armory. This is how I roll.



And my crew getting ready to protect you poor innocent sheep at one of the worlds largest retail facilitys

Wow. That's some serious S&M-bondage-gimpsuit for the wealthy! I imagine you could even OC in that and nobody would even notice.

When and if body armor is as comfortable as an undershirt I may consider it.  Until then it's just and odds of needing thing vs hassle factor.  My odds of needing body armor or even my handgun are fairly low, but the hassle of carrying is not very much and as of now the hassle of wearing armor is pretty high.

 

For those saying "Why go where you need armor?"...I ask "Why go where you need a firearm?"

[Caster]

Why hasn't there been more R&D put into making functional armor that is both comfortable and stylish AND subtle?

My guess is that even if there is or will be, it is not intended for or will be offerd to the "average" person.

I read awhile back that there were polo type shirts available to stop all pistol rounds but not rifle maybe level IIA or III. And they were quite flexible and stylish however they were still very hot and unbelievably expensive to the point only a very wealthy person would have one.

I'm holding out for a personal ray shield generator.

Because only the military can afford to finance the development and they don't care about any of those.

I just drive my tiger tank around and when I need something I use the drive through window. Why because my tiger tank has ac for the summer and heated for the winter. No need to walk around in body armor when you can have total armor with a very big gun. Edited February 5, 2014 by joe45

There has. http://www.gizmag.com/bulletproof-suit-carbon-nanotube-garrison/29677/

 

You forgot 'affordable'. Unfortunately, that's not yet an option.

Hmm, yes, but what do you do if an assailant has a bazooka? I hope you have reactive armor or else you're just gambling with your safety.

Yeah, but a Tiger is sooo yesterday...it "only" has a 88mm gun, isn't that fast, is a fuel hog, no thermals or stabilized gun tube.
