Learn how to work kevlar and epoxy. You can make some decent plates with no more than that.

So if you have plates already, you're cool, if you buy them after, you're a felon?
Makes sense.

I don’t think in the way of plate armour as most of any instances of need will be against handguns IMO. Since my soft concealable body armour vest is rated for up to and includng .44 magnum, slash and strike all is good. If hit with a rifle round then it is better than nothing.

Maybe ban body armor so they could win the next civil war?What do they accomplish with banning this though? I don’t recall criminals or mass shooting terrorist wearing these. Only in the movies ..... oh wait all gun controls get their ideas from movies. No wonder John Wick got to shoot his Fully Semi Auto in NYC with a 30 round mag without a permit.
but he did end up paying lots for 7 rounds too .. i almost yelled UNSAFE ACT in the movie Theater LOL ..
Seven million dollars gets you seven rounds. That's a million dollars a round, baby. [John loads the gun]. John Wick : Let's go.

Passively defending your body turns you into a felon? Only mind fucked fiddlers named Nero think like this.
Think about it.
Body armor is probably used in like .001% of violent crime.
It's a passive protection that doesn't harm anyone. Yet, they don't want us common folk from being able to posses it.
What conclusions can we infer?
They want to make it easier to kill us. Period. No other explanation makes sense.
Body armor for civilians used to be so obscure and fringe no one paid attention. Lately there is now an entire industry of civilian body armor and it's grown to become much more common so they are trying to put a stop to it now that we are all buying in a stocking up. They can't have us protecting ourselves.

For all intents and purposes you should be good with lvl. 3, it’ll take multiple hits from .308, M855 and m193, 3+ if you plan on getting pegged by AP rounds

I don't plan on getting pegged by anything but I will plan for the worst. I have my eye on the LAPG Level IV when they are available again.
Thoughts... Excluding the cost if course.
