XT-700 Type II and XT-300 Type IIIA Body Armor

Safariland's XT-700 Type II (#BA-2000S-FC01) and XT-300 Type IIIA (#BA-3A00S-BR01) models have been determined by the NIJ to comply with the new NIJ-06 standard. The NIJ introduced the Ballistic Resistance of Body Armor NIJ Standard-0101.06 to establish minimum performance requirements and test methods for the ballistic resistance of personal body armor in order to improve performance so that officers receive adequate protection against those threats likely faced over the next decade. According to the new NIJ-06 standard, body armor must now be able to defend against increased velocities of ammunition calibers to better reflect current street threats and law enforcement duty weapons. These new performance requirements are critical components to improving the life-protecting equipment being used by law enforcement. Safariland's NIJ-06 body armor models set a new industry benchmark by combining their latest technologies -- Geometrics and proprietary framing -- with advanced ballistic materials. The available models include: XT-700 Type II provides advanced ballistic protection in a lightweight, hybrid design; and the XT-300 Type IIIA provides optimum ballistic performance in a robust design.
