I import Israeli ballistic plates and vests. I am offering a group buy on two types: Level III Famostone (a polyethylene plate, stops up to 7.62 x 51 M80 NATO Ball, non-AP) and Level-IV Ceramic plate (1 round .30-06 AP).

These are NIJ certified plates rated when used in conjunction with a Level IIIA vest. Will they stop rounds when used as stand-alone plates? Possibly, but the manufacturer has not certified is as such.

The ceramic plates weight about 7 pounds each and the Famostone is 3-3.5 pounds, but is about an 1" thick (v. 1/2-5/8" for ceramic). Level III stops up to 7.62x51 NON-AP. Level IV is ONE ROUND of .30-06 AP. Otherwise, the plates are rated for 6 hits (but not in the exact same spot...spaced about 1" or so apart). Size is 10"x12".

Ceramic Plates - IV $210.00
Famastone Plates - III $290.00

Shipping via UPS ground is:

Famostone:
One plate, $15
Two plates, $20
Please add $3.00 per additional plate

Ceramic
$15.00
$22.00 for two
Please add add $7.00 per additional plate


These prices are about 22% below my MSRP pricing.

If you wish to order a Blackhawk Rifle Plate Carrier Harness, I will make them available as part of this offer for $79.99, shipping included. I have a limited supply in OD and Coyote (about 8 units each), no black.

The order will be made no Earlier than May 25th and no later than May 30th. Therfore, payment is due by May 24th and can be made via Paypal (paypal@practicaltactical.net), MasterCard, American Express, Visa or Money Order.

I am checking with Israel on shipping times, but once I receive them, you should get them within two weeks, since UPS ground can take up to 5-7 business days to arrive, depending on your location. This offer valid only for CONUS-based US residents and void where prohibited by law, and you are responsible for knowing your local laws.
