The Great Plate Debate

[pag23]

I've heard that hard armor can be tricky with women because of their chest which could make fitment problematic.

You could always get a carrier and level IIIa soft armor which might fit better.

My wife really didn't have issues with the LAPG plates, but yes there is a bit of "a front side coverage" but it does protect most vitals and I didn't see much out there in plates for women.

Any reccomendation on the soft body armor? After a quick search, only coming up with a couple options, most of which, never heard of the company.
I wondered the same about plates, fitment issues as a result of "anatomical differences," lol. My wife loves shooting, but couldn't hurt a fly. I just want something for a HD situation, just in case, and the soft armor sounds like a better fit for that role. Thanks again for the advice.

I got my set of L3s from LAPG yesterday. They're thicker than I'd expected, but they fit great in my Mayflower carrier. I haven't yet put the carrier on with both plates in place due to a back problem I'm hopefully almost through with.
