The Second Amendment states we have the right to protect ourselves and our families. Many people instantly refer the word “protection” as only having a gun, but wouldn’t it make sense to include having protection against guns as part of that right as well? Private ownership of body armor by legal law abiding citizens is your right. At Prime Armor we are completely dedicated to providing you American Made Body Armor that is STRONGER, LIGHTER and more FLEXIBLE than any other body armor. We accomplish this through our proprietary manufacturing methods and new technological solutions.
We pride ourselves on our exemplary customer service and care of those we serve because Protecting people is our duty, passion and mission.
Because our soft body armor has unparalleled flexibility and is specifically made to conform to the contours of human anatomy we offer a very popular Female Body Armor solution that is custom made to fit like no other armor.
Our armor panels has been proven to function even after complete submersion in water, neutralizing a key weakness of common soft body armor. In addition to being water resistant, our soft body armor is impervious to UV light and atmosphere and doesn’t degrade like traditional body armor, which makes our soft body armor far more durable and cost efficient.
We've carefully engineered our plate carriers to fit a wide range of body types. Each carrier features multiple adjustment points at the shoulders and sides (located on the back panel) for a personalized fit.
If you find your carrier doesn't fit properly after making these adjustments, just reach out to us. Our team is ready to help with fitting guidance, custom adjustments, or replacement options.
