I was recently contacted by a representative from Safeguard Armor, he asked if I would like to review their Stealth Body Armor. I’ve written body armor and plate carrier reviews in the past, but have never reviewed any concealable armor. Truth be told the concealable armor is much more practical and can be used on a …

Let’s face it, we don’t have piles of ammunition lying around just waiting to be shot which was all paid for by sponsors. While getting out to the range is fun and necessary, there is much that can be done within the comfort of your own home which can (given enough time) drastically improve your …
