Anyone know if pinnacle armor is selling their Dragon Skin to civilians? Just wonder if they are going to the civi market if the military is balking at using them.

I don't know for sure, one way to find out is to contact them directly.

Their site (http://www.pinnaclearmor.com/)

I would venture to bet they are EXTREMELY expensive compared to everything else on the market. Although; from what I saw on FutureWeapons, it might just be the ticket home!

Impressive!!!:D

Its heavier than conventional plates

$1600 for 10x12 plates and $5700 for a SPEAR/BALCS cut set.


it is flexible -- its biggest bonus.

I have a set for one of my rigs.

The DragonSkin appears to be heavier, because it covers more area of the body--the DragonSkin armor we have tested has been lighter than conventional plates when comparing equivalent size coverage areas.

Good point -- thanks Doc, --
but also I've been cheating with Poly plates recently so that is where I see the weight
