PROTECH 2113MC-2 and 2113MC-3

Safariland's PROTECH 2113MC-2 and 2113MC-3 (shown) Level III hard armor plates completed the National Institute of Justice's updated testing protocol for Level III rifle threat compliance under NIJ-06. In addition to meeting NIJ-06 compliance testing, the 2113MC-3 also underwent special threat testing to include multiple impacts against the 7.62 x 39 mm MSC round, more commonly known as the AK-47.
As with all PROTECH NIJ-06 10x12 rifle threat plates, both 2113MC rifle plates were tested as stand-alone, which means their performance is not dependent on the addition of "in conjunction with" body armor. This makes these plates ideal for first responders.
Additionally, the rifle plates are manufactured in a contoured, multi-curve design with a military-style shooter's cut configuration, which affords greater range of motion in the arm and upper chest area. The 2113MC-2 and 2113MC-3 plates are manufactured using ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) fiber, which makes the rifle plates among the lightest (just over three pounds) and strongest on the market. These plates are also positively buoyant, which makes them ideal for use in maritime patrol or other waterborne operations.
