Quality armour
This armour looks and feels like quality but I can't truly attest to how well it protects as I haven't shot it or been shot with it on and hopefully won't experience the latter. This armour is peace of mind. What I can speak to is the buying experience with S&J, which is great. I was experiencing issues and Sean gave me a call to get it squared away.
