No, but my bullet resistant vest is great.
Actually I don't have one, I just wanted to point out that there is no such thing as a bulletproof vest.

BTW, don't remember for sure, but I don't think the term "bullet PROOF vest" is used much anymore because they're not always necessarily bulletproof. Bullet resistant? Maybe. Most of the time I see/hear these referred to as "body armor".

Re: Anyone have a bullet resistant vest?
Where did you get it, why did you get, what resistant level is it, how does it feel, is it worn over the clothes or under. Can you lay down in it well?Papacub wrote:Yes, I have one, hanging in my closet. Just in case! (A bullet resistant vest!)

Re: Anyone have a bullet resistant vest?
I have 3 vests, a Second chance Level 3A, Paca Proform XP model KXP-3A and a Galls Level 2A
I was a Deputy and used them everyday. I will say you need to wear a Tee shirt under them as they awill wear a hole in you if you don't .
