So, is he going to ban the plates, or the plate carriers, or both ?

I see a market for curved AR500 targets and odd pocket shapes on load bearing vests if he manages to pass this one.

If they make it illegal for purchase, you can still make your own. AR 500 steel is not illegal. You can cut and fit target steel to any size you want.

You can also wear frying pans to protect your soul too.

Schumer proposes bill to regulate body armor
August 11, 2019
Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) said Sunday he intends to introduce a bill restricting the sale of body armor when the Senate reconvenes in September, according to the New York Post.

The bill would require the FBI to establish standards for who is allowed to buy body armor such as bullet-resistant vests after a series of mass shootings in which the gunmen wore body armor, most recently the suspect in the killing of nine people last weekend in Dayton, Ohio.

Schumer's proposal would include exceptions for police and other public safety officials, according to the AP.

"The ease with which those intent on doing evil are able to get advanced body armor is shocking,"

You can't just ban body armor. Body armor comes in so many forms and materials. Enforcing this would be near impossible. WAY too easy to just pull the plates out and boom all you have is sheet metal or fabric. Maybe they're just targets for the range or part of the dog house? The vest is for paintball or airsoft. What about the kevlar "bulletproof" clothing lines for formal and casual attire? Wait a second, I can just buy ar500 steel and cut and coat it myself? Wait AND I can just buy kevlar fabric and layer it myself into any clothing?

Wrap ar 500 in Kevlar sheets ( you can still buy them) to prevent spalling. Some use truck bed liner but I’m nit sure if that does the job.
