I'm in search of a plate to wear on duty 10-12 hours in conjunction with my LEO soft armor , and found the Chase Tactical site.
They have some light weight plates BD TEN 3600,and was wondering if anyone with some knowledge can check them out, or any first hand knowledge if these are good to go. Or can recommend another maker of light weight plates that are good to go.
Thank you.

No knowledge of that brand/product, but those plates are PE and probably wont stop M855 if that makes any difference to you.

I would not buy them for LE use. They will not stop M855.

Here's a bit more info about that plate: http://www.tencate.com/amer/Images/TCAA%20AMER%20P3%20-%20Product%20Data%20Sheet%20-%20Cratus%203600SA_R5_tcm29-29855.pdf

Note that the threat testing does not cover M855, as others here have noted.
