Don't use body armor itself. Instead, buy AR500 steel rifle targets, and home-make the shell to turn it into a plate carrier.

A: this is far cheaper. You can get large, thick rifle targets that can cover your torso for under a hundred dollars, while purpose-made plates will be way more.

B: rifle targets come in many sizes and shapes, from circles to body contours. If you want to protect more than just your torso, you'll need this.

C: Bulletproof helmets are rare and expensive. However, you can tie a few small rifle targets to a motorcycle helmet, and have pretty good odds of stopping a lucky shot.

The only problem is bullet spalling (IE the shrapnel that splatters when a bullet stops. Bedliner and plastic might get the job done, but I think I'm going to go with a good old fashioned wooden case for mine.

You're a day late.

If you can find anything... get it.

eBay actually has stuff made by smaller US companies, using AR500 armor, in stock. Kit up.

Its not coming. Its over. Now that we know its rigged, we plan for the next election. We need to be at every location watching the votes get counted.

I don't know. Take it day by day. Live your life. Pray. Power of prayer works. I've seen it work in my life.

No point in even holding elections if it's rigged. Bullets are our ballots now.
