Yeah. Idk how I feel about it because SafeLife has a pretty shady business practice. A lot of their armor were not NIJ tested for years and they made their stuff in China too. Despite all of this… their armor is oddly expensive even when compared to American made body armor of the same level.

Chinese made or not, they're hands down the best soft/flex armor on the market. And even the military will tell you that NIJ doesn't mean everything, it just gives a rough way to compare armor on paper for the top's that cant bother or don't have time to field test.
Thanks for reviewing! I was intrigued but had suspicions on edge protection compared to traditional plates. Some of your hits were pretty close to the edge, even after it was compromised. Color me impressed.
Stealth Armor Systems, Hexar is the competitor for the FRAS. The owner of SAS was originally involved with DragonSkin, and I see DragonSkin is relaunching.

The system is innovative for sure, and the weight of the panels are sweet. But I can’t be the only one to wonder just how bad your going to be hurting after stopping that round lol that indent is serious. But I suppose that’s what the trade off is for having flexible lightweight plates. Great content my dude

That's if you get hit. I think there are many people willing to trade rigid plates for comfortable plates, especially if the chance of being hit is very low.

Yeah the blunt force trauma seems just as lethal as penetration.
combining this with say a lighter ceramic or steel level 3 plate would be really interesting. That and they should make these in a sideplate style that'd be cool.
Very cool! It took me a while to save up for their iiia+ armor but it was damn worth it, I will consider this as my next major purchase!

You’ll probably die from all the ribs puncturing your organs. This armor looks sketchy af. I’d go with lightweight ceramic level 4.
Currently on sale for $539.00 per plate, just putting that out there for everyone. Also ships free in 3-5 weeks. Was on sale for $472.00 but when you click on it the price changes to the 539 deal with a mention of free shipping. I think the 472 was while it was in stock ready to ship.
Awesome video brother. You should make a video comparing cheap plates to the more expensive plates. Just putting it out there.
Select Fire is always the answer. I am going to start using that.
I'm looking into things to make a bullet proof corset..this looks like it'd work great with Spectra for the fabric and steel boning to make it have the support for a proper corset.
Thanks for testing it!
I would love to see a test with the Hyperine panels + FRAS plates like Safelife is selling as a bundle if possible.
thank you mike for the video!!
Great Intel and a very good product.
Level 3A kevlar soft armor will stop a 2 oz. 12 ga slug, but it still doesn’t mean you’ll survive it. That backface deformation from the m855 could definitely kill you. I think I’ll stick with my hard plates.

Great armor and video.
I can relate to the sweat factor @MrGunsngear, I live in Southwest Louisiana humidity capital 🙃 😅 😒
the construction of the armor almost seems very similar to the construction of the dragon skin armor concept the military has a couple years back. definitely an awesome concept and it seems to work great. the only trick is not getting shot in the same spot twice but than again if you are doing that in a gun fight you definitely have bigger things to worry about.
@fujimi715

The difference is the adhesive used to bond the tiles together. Dragon skin failed but somehow safelite has found a way to make the adhesive work. Cause remember the tiles need to take the hit but also the adhesive needs to hold up to a rifle round hitting it.
Very, very impressive. Not cheap but great value for the quality.

I wish they made a full body-type wrap around type armor instead of just individual plates that you can insert into a carrier. This type of armor is perfect as the apocalypse runs out of bullets and people begin switching to melee type weapons. I'd like to see how this armor stands up to a high powered compound bow or crossbow at close range.

Question: After you noticed that the .30-06 round impacted next to a previous round... wouldn't it make sense to shoot the vest again in an area that was not compromised?

I really, really wanted to see you it hit with xm193 out of a 20in barrel. I feel like that is that is a better benchmark than m855 for future videos, since it’s a real sleeper for personal armor penetration. Common setup/ammo too.

IV8888 tested a 20" barrel with both 2 shots M855 and 2 shots M193 from 8 feet away and it stopped it. The M855 was easily stopped. The M193 did not pass through but it did leave a dent which would hurt, but at least you aren't getting a bullet in the chest. Pretty impressive stuff! kzread.info/dash/bejne/foWBtMSxnri-qLA.html
Wish you would have taken a shot on that fresh spot up top with the 30-06, I’m sure it would have killed it regardless but would have been cool to see

should have shot that black tip 30-06 at the top at an uncompromised location. I'm genuinely curious on what the black tip 30-06 does to Fresh FRAS armor. I have a backpack that holds soft armor. And this plate along with some pistol backpack armor probably offers some serious protection.
Just bought the full FRAS panel vest, today. Hope it’s as good as they say.

best material to have for plates in the vehicle all summer and winter long?
These protection vest etc. the average person cannot even afford the cost. Damn this is a good one
Let's see a slo-mo of how much the plate penetrates into a gel block. As the .308 appeared to penetrate the paper it probably pushed the back through the target.
Amazing!
Impressive
Any chance you would test this against another fras vest? Be interested to see what the ICW capabilities are. Thanks for the videos (other than a lighter wallet lol).

M193 and M855 out of a 20 inch barrel at 50 yards. Will it survive?
If you pair it with IIIA, does it matter where you put each plate?
What about .243win and M193/55gr 5.56 at full speed?
Man - That's thing is like my "Prom Night" - No Penatration
That back face deformation is kinda crazy
These results are consistent with everything else I've seen. Looks like FRAS could be worth every penny of it's cost. On my watchlist.
