hello friends and /k/ommandos,
Last year I made the decision to trust my life on the street to Second Chance body armor. I got the level IIa because it stops the most rounds. plus I got the Trauma Plate for the front.
What scares me is that, although I can fit an extra trauma plate in the front, I cannot fit a second one in back. As of late I have taken toduct-taping a second trauma plateto the area of my back where the heart and vital organs are located. Then I put my vest on.
Here is the questions. The ducttape solution, although tactically sound, is hot and painful to remove. I would like to go to the single-plate solution in back. What I am worried about is repeated hits to that area with .308 ammunition. I have a high-risk security job and I fear that I would be the target for repeated long-distance shots to my back.
Are any of you aware of a thicker plate that could stop, say, .338 Lapua or something like that? Is there a better way to do the second plate?
BTW, I am, of course, usually carrying a pair of ceramic plates in my briefcase so that I can shield my head. My SO (we work as a team when necessary) has a similar accessory containing a breakdown NEF single-shot 300 WinMag with an 18" bbl. The plan is that I shield us with my body and “catch the rounds” while she assembles the NEF. I lay down covering fire with my 23 (Bar-Sto .357 Sig barrel) and she makes the long shots. I will then throw smoke grenades to obscure the area while continuing to lay covering fire. The problem, of course, is when I have to turn my back to run, and then the problem crops up.

Maybe you should invest your time training in ninjitsu, that way you can simply teleport behind them before thy can make the shot.

I never understood why Mallninja never duct-taped the second back-plate to the inside or outside of the vest instead of somehow taping it onto his own sweaty pimpled skin.
>Was duct-tape less effective on fabric all those years ago?

>>32575543
Oh fug I actually remember the original gecko45 post. It caused quite a stir back in the day. Legends of trolling

If Plan A is to take multiple .338 shots to the back, you really need to come up with a Plan B

because they shift and it's more effective when it's tight against your body or something.

i'm relatively new, 2-3 years. Is this the reason mall ninjas are called mall ninjas?
>>
>>32580015
Yes. Gecko45 was the alpha mall ninja.
Also look up Gunkid, creator of the assault wheelbarrow.

How many times have you been shot since you made this decision?
>>
>>32580418
Several. Fortunately the mall Chechens don't have .338s.
