YOU’LL WEAR IT.TM MASTER CATALOG QUALITY | COMFORT | VALUE “” YOU’LL WEAR IT! STEPHEN ARMELLINO PRESIDENT, CEO THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE. For more than 30 years, we at U.S. Armor have had the honor of outfitting the law enforcement and military communities with superior body armor and protective equipment. As former servicemen, officers or family members of both, myself and our dedicated team members take incredible pride and care in the design and construction of our armor and protective equipment. We are thankful for the opportunity to support you in serving us all. As you know, your armor is only effective if it’s worn and therefore, we have committed ourselves to producing the lightest, safest, and most dynamic armor. It is with your comfort and performance needs in mind that we select the most innovative, respected material suppliers and partners and seek to advance our offerings as applicable. While we solemnly ensure that our products are compliant with all applicable standards and requirements, our primary objective is to protect and support you, so you can focus on effectively doing your job. We thank you for your trust in us and in return, we promise to deliver superior body armor that you’ll comfortably wear. Sincerely, - STEPHEN ARMELLINO A HISTORY TO PROTECT U.S. ARMOR has provided superior body armor and He has taken his father’s protective products for more than three decades. Our designs into the 21st legacy dates back to Richard Armellino, Sr., father of century with U.S. Armor’s current U.S. -

Contemporary Personal Ballistic Protection (PBP)
Chapter 8 Contemporary Personal Ballistic Protection (PBP) Izabela Luiza Ciesielska-Wróbel Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/intechopen.69085 Abstract The review concerns existing contemporary protective equipment and their compo- nents serving against ballistic and non-ballistic threats of different sorts. The main focus, however, is on the personal ballistic protection (PBP) based on textile components and their role in the protective elements. Soft ballistic protections are crucial Soft ballistic protections are crucial elements of PBP, forexample in military and law enforcements. Although the subject of PBP was limited in this chapter to soft ballistic protection, other elements, e.g. hard ballistic protection, stab-resistant vests, dual threat, so-called in-con- junction protective elements, modern helmets, were also mentioned in this chapter to demonstrate positioning of the soft ballistic protection and other elements in the global personal protection approach. Apart from it, the chapter contains selected information concerning high-performance polymers and fibres as well as a brief notes about their application in protective panels being basic elements of any protective element. The final remarks concern the most up-to-date approach in relation to ballistic protection, which is immersing high-performance fibres into non-Newtonian liquid substances having the ability of ordering their chemical particles and changing into a high concentration and high segregation lattice under the influence of kinetic energy impact. Keywords: personal ballistic protection, soft body armour, hard body armour, dual threat, stab-resistant vests, bullet-resistant vests, protective panels, high-performance fibres 1. Introduction This chapter provides selected and the most up-to-date information concerning personal ballistic protection (PBP). -

Product List 2018
PRODUCT LIST 2018 1 OVER & UNDER 828U 828U SILVER - 12 GAUGE - 3" - MAGNUM CHAMBER “828” is the number that identifies the historical town of Urbino in Unesco’s list of World Heritage Sites. The 828 U over and under combines the artistry of the past with the technology of the future. The elegance of the Silver version of the 828 U is expressed through the sleek lines of the receiver, embellished with original engravings that extend without interruption on to the stock, creating harmony of form between the different materials. The wood stock incorporates Benelli’s Progressive Comfort system, and a special polyurethane stock and comb that are superbly effective at reducing recoil and muzzle rise. Lightness, comfort, stability and versatility all find their ultimate expression in the 828 U. This quick swinging over and under is also amazingly steady and easy to customise for hunters of all statures and shooting styles. The 828 U is the only over and under that permits fine adjustment of drop and cast for truly perfect fitting.The heart of Benelli’s O&U is its tempered steel lock plate. This simple but ingenious design guarantees robust, reliable locking and eliminates mechanical stress at the receiver’s hinge pins. By combining this advanced locking system with an aluminium receiver, Benelli has succeeded in creating an O&U shotgun that weights less than 3 Kg but is also extremely robust and perfectly balanced. Another key feature of the 828 U is its fast-acting, precise, compact, practical, reliable and easy to remove trigger unit. Owning an 828 U means tailored comfort and maximum accuracy. -
