AR500 Armor Level III + Square Back Plate 10 x 12
The AR500 Armor Level III + Square Back Plate 10 x 12 is specifically for use with a back plate in your plate carrier capable of accepting 10-in x 12-in body armor. The Level III Back Plate body armor offers the same ballistic protection as our ASC line with the benefit of increased coverage. When back plate is in use it offers additional coverage from the back side of your plate carrier. However your plate carrier must be compatible with a rectangular back plate cut. Please see the carrier compatibility list below. Use of a Back Plate in the front of your plate carrier is not recommended unless you're willing to sacrifice comfort and ergonomics while shouldering your rifle.
