So that vest is only designed to stop shell fragments. So if you expect the bad guy to drop mortars or throw grenades at you, go for it.

I don't think they will even stop pistol rounds.

And I know for sure they won't stop a bayonet - dude at N GA College found that out the hard way horsing around a few years ago.

If you need a cot I can vouch for that aluminum one. If you can use a crow bar to set the thing up they make for a nice firm sleeping surface.

Safe travels Peanut Butter Peanut Butter !

Yea I realized it’s just a flak jacket not a bulletproof vest. But I may go for the cot because you never know lol

I have 6 of those cots, they are good to go for at least 325 pounds per person. I used mine with my friends at my house.
