Hey guys, Ive been around for a while and haven't posted much so here goes. I'm looking to buy two sets of hard armor for me and my fiance. I am an avid shooter and big 2A guy as well as an aspiring photojournalist. She works as a full time photojournalist for a local paper. Needless to say we both cover a lot of raids, standoffs, political protests, sticky situations etc. It would also be nice to have as a worst case scenario thing.
I'm in Cleveland Ohio and I'll have to cover the RNC this summer and the way things look now, it could get interesting. So I figured now is as good of a time as ever to buy some armor. The armor plates and carriers will live in the trunk of a car for most of its life and mine will make it to our range a few times a month. I've been looking at the Spartan III+ Armaply 10x12 plates because they fit our budget nicely and don't seem too heavy.

I figured the most we might ever encounter is handgun or shotgun rounds (hopefully never) but with the popularity of the AR platform having hard armor protection wouldn't hurt and could give piece of mind. Please help me out, thanks guys, have a great day.
