NIJ Level III+ Body Armor Plate Review

NICE PRODUCT

Bought this for my 11 year old daughters backpack. Wish this wasn’t the kind of world we live in. It ended up being to heavy for her with her books and supplies so returned. Nice product overall however, maybe better for an older stronger child. She is only 80lbs.
