British Surplus Police Ballistic Vest, Used is rated 4.9 out of 5 by 9.

Rated 5 out of 5 by TonyATL from Level 2A plus stab in excellent condition I ordered one based on the hit or miss reviews and got a perfect hit for mine. The vest is so much better than I expects. My carrier has a waste strap for the back carrier to hold it tight and large velcro waist closures on each side for the front. The shoulders have velcro with limited adjustment for height. There was a food stain or something similar on the bottom of the carrier, but I was going to wash it either way. As others have noticed, pockets may vary. I have two small shoulder pockets and poorly removed stitching where the agency name was removed. The carrier does is not torn and is easily covered when I sew a velcro panel across the chest and back. ("Writer" like Castle?)I removed the ballistic panels before washing. Both are in perfect condition with no visible sweat stains or damage. Both are labelled NIJ 2A and limited stab protection. Unlike other surplus panels I've purchase, there was not a giant orange sticker covering up the level.I bought 3 more right before leaving this review. Sorry, but supplies are limited!

Rated 5 out of 5 by The Monster from Wonderful surplus! Other than that surplus smell, the 5 vests that I have purchased are in great shape and also all different from each other. The manfacturers are different. The armor panels inside of these vests varies in their former (now expired) protection rating, their shape, and their composition (some even have chain mail over kevlar inside). I'm impressed and probably bought too many of them but they are all very cool looking and I will work on that surplus smell...

Rated 5 out of 5 by Calhoun from Surprisingly comfortable! I’m 6’ and 145lb, size medium fits perfectly. The vest is lightweight and the adjustable straps make it comfortable to wear for long periods at a time. The vest itself is in great condition, clearly lightly used. Slight sweat stains that washed off with a wet rag.Bonus: I checked the pockets and there was an English Pound! I literally bought money.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Buzzsaw from The Most Cost Effective Ballistic Vest Available My vest arrived and appeared to be BRAND NEW, clean and pristine in the bag. If it ever saw any duty, it was very light. Fit is perfect. Mine had no pockets, but did have some clamps for gear. It's a good solid "stab vest." From what I've seen it is probably a level two as far as bullet resistance goes, so it should stop a 9mm, but not necessarily a 44 magnum unless plates are added. Naturally with time, kevlar is supposed to break down, so no promisses. All in all it is all I hoped it would be, especially for the price.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Ben1 from to small So, I ordered a 2XL. (normally loose) This vest was 3" from being able to zip up. I ended up ordering a carrier from another company and putting these panels in it.(panels dated 2004)...... Problem solved

I THINK it had the Kevlar panels, both front and back.
I do know that most Kevlar products have a 5 year warranty. After that they are replaced so that is how these end up as surplus. Depending how they are stored/cared for, the Kevlar is usually still good but that is why it is sold as &quot;Collectables&quot; only due to liability. I would still trust my old replaced department vest which is 12 years old. <div class="bvseo-author">Answered by: Ken B</div> <div class="bvseo-pubdate">Date published: 2019-07-03</div> </div> </div> <div class="bvseo-question-answer" data-questionid="3613047"> <h2 class="bvseo-question"> What is the country of manufacture? </h2> <div class="bvseo-question-detail"> </div> <div class="bvseo-author">Asked by: Gecko45</div> <div class="bvseo-answer" data-answerid="4175796"> Thank you for your question.
