Oh and don’t forget about your noggin. Understand that trained personell will go after your head if they spot body armor. Consider ballistic helmet unless you have one already.
I like the one linked (not affiliated with Shellback, I just always have had good experience with their products).
Yes, it’s 3lbs but if it keeps your brain protected, well worth.

Re: Anybody bought body armor? Thinking about it....
I’ve had Shellback Tactical for few months. Like the setup. It’s level 3 rated up to M80 ball (.308). With front and side plates it has some heft to it but nothing bad. I’ve walked 5 mile stretches in Texas heat w/o issues (slow paced of course 
).
Oh, all plate carriers/BA will make you look fat (or fatter
).
