- Today we are looking at the armor or "bulletproof vest" I use every day as a Cop and the kit I keep in it to make myself and the public safer. Inside if Safe Life Defense FRAS, or Flexible Rifle Armor System, the most advanced armor I've ever come across. ON the outside is the guardian angel device, med kit, cobra cuffs, magazines, Olight warrior x duty light, Leatherman Wave multitool, and a myriad of other gear I can wholeheartedly recommend.

Last time I clicked this fast people still respected law enforcement
*oof*
Its officer to officer, the way any job is teacher to teacher, chef to chef. Some people will natraully take to the job and serve with honor and respect for years, some are bound to abuse the power but as I said name your profession to cast the 1st stone on all good officers for any bad, dont you have crappy coworkers (doyg, ok its doug we all know why i didn't want to name names but you know why doug and its you fucking blah blah blockchain). So defubd the people stopping rapist? Yeah great slogan.
Great video. I used your older videos when I had just started and they helped me a lot, not just with specific items to carry but WHY you want to carry things. One thing I carry on my vest that I would never be without is a pair of trauma sheers. Great for when you need to cut bloody clothes off someone or other jobs where you won’t want to use your knife since you can just throw the sheers out after.
I Have that Guardian light as an Armed security guard! It works great especially when it's raining and your outside patrolling.
Gog bless you for everything that you do! You are wonderful and a credit to society!
Our Dept uses Eagle Uniform vests as well! Bobby is a great dude
A good way to avoid the vest wear spot is a baton scabbard. They distance the baton from your body a little more and they can turn 180 degrees.
I’m not big on the open top pistol pouches. I got into a use of force incident last week and I almost lost a mag. HSGI offers closed top Molly’s pouches. I recommend those.
what type of HSGI taco pouch do u have holding ur Olite warrior X also awesome video stay safe bud and keep up the awesome work and thank you for your service
Hey brother, great video like normal. Did Eagle Uniform size the carrier to the panels or did they have general sizing like Safelife does?
What would you estimate the weight difference between safelife defense level 3+ and the "soft rifle armor" that you wear now? Thanks.
Can’t wait for the duty belt video.
ye
Me too!!!
Just wanna say your my favorite person who’s actually functioning & learning on duty actively so your advice is respected & appreciated by me for sure. I also appreciate the give always especially now being in my late 20’s & already having medical issues I’ve had stomach / lower bowl cancer at 20.
I’m not sure what’s going on but lately I haven’t been able to workout, been losing so much muscle mass & just walking from my car to walmart yesterday it literally felt like I was going to die like my lungs were caving in & someone was just choking me.
My throat was even hurting & I just stood there for 3mins before I could start shopping.
Hope I win your latest giveaway (I think it’s you) But I really want/need body armor & carrier.
I’m afraid of something happening before I find out & fix whatever is happening to my body it’s scary not knowing why you can’t breath without any sighs of injury or illness.
Thanks for the uploads & be safe out there.
@Saint Babylon quit begging, stop trying to make excuses that you need body armor because you’re sick,,,,,, makes no sense
Love it bro. Keep up the videos
Excellent video. Lots of good info
Very nice video ,like your vest set up
What kind of admin pouch is that? Been looking for a good one that’s not too big and that one looks perfect!
Nice setup would you consider having a spare AR mag on your vest if you grad and to with AR ?
16:00 You can't break those cuffs.
You should do user submitted duty belt & plate carrier set-up where you showcase the good and rag on the bad! 😅
I’m getting pains in the fronts of my shoulders with my external molle carrier. I keep my magazines, radio, Taser, and a pair of handcuffs on my vest. Any advice on how to fix this? Should I move some things back to my belt?
I recommend you put an ICE card [in case of emergency card] in the left pocket, the ambulance is trained to look there because it's also where they check first when someone has cardiac arrest.
So it's the standard first check place for medics.
Never covered that in my EMT training. It is certainly not a national registry topic so it must be local to you.
@@JakeHabermansTH-cam I have no idea, they may have forgotten, or you're right, maybe it's just in Canada or just some parademics do it.
Hey Tommy, I'm gonna recommend some good businesses who I have no qualms supporting for those who need it:
RecoilGunworks - an Indiana gun shop run by a bunch of former LEOs who got their FFLs. They got the best deals on PD trade-in Glocks and PD surplus ammo. They sell to anybody regardless of credentials, too. A good source for ammo in this trying times.
SOLATAC - a Louisiana paramedic who's been in the line of duty for nearly 2 decades, he has some excellent IFAKs for the most reasonable prices I've ever seen. I can wholeheartedly recommend him alongside North American Rescue and SkinnyMedic's store
AtlanticTactical - a reputable Safariland dealer who has some excellent deals on body armor carriers as well as guns and ammo, Safariland pouches for your duty belt, etc. Their customer service has been very good in all my times with them
Galls - The secret weapon of people in the line of duty, if you need anything uniform related they will hook you up
Rite In The Rain - these people make notebooks that are completely waterproof. I live in Texas, where it's humid as hell and when it rains it rains for 3 days straight. These all weather notebooks are the only thing I run in the line of duty now, and I can highly recommend them to anybody who works outdoors.
what do you think about ace link uniform vest i do security that is ran by law enforcement its kinda similar at work but as a security guard what do you think about the ace link 3a uniform vest?
19:00 - a TQ is only one item that shoud be in your medical pouch and that alone explains why the first can never replace the latter.
Hi 😊😊👋👋😊😊👋
This is great video is there any local Stores that you like I can go look at for Body armor for work I live by soxs park?
Do you wear it all the time during your patrols or only put it on when you get calls which are hostile?
What do you use the leather man file for exactly?
*Do you have or can you make a video on "breaking in" new soft body armor panels please? Especially for people new to wearing soft body armor. How can you, OR SHOULD YOU EVEN try to make the panels more loose, flexible, more comfortable by some process that doesn't affect the panel's reliability and abilities? Like rolling it, folding it, wear it as much as possible? How can we make our soft panels less stiff without damaging or otherwise rendering their abilities less protective? Again, should you even do that?*
Went on your Instagram for the live and wasn’t there and also what happened to the video testing for safevest I’m deciding if it’s a good company for my husband since it’s in a Great price
Where did you get the medkit from I dont see a link to it?
Can I put safariland armor panels inside a safelife vest ? I have dept issued safariland vest but I want to use a different carrier
Can you recommend a good molle holster for a Motorola xts 5000R radio please
Do a watch video just curious on what you wear
The guardian angel device, when you have to go lights and siren on a foot chase. (seriously it needs an integrated siren)
I sell armor and was on the fence on fras vs my level ll armor and then hard plates (and italian arny helmet, a bit too much) now i think im gonna keep my level ll vest as is om my drivers seat as doubled up .44 back support and switch my go to grab to fras, but I'm keeping my ceramic plates and helmet, you NEVER know.
Nice video thanks
What was the situation where you need it to have those 3 mags.
Boy do I feel silly. Here I am looking through your TH-cam videos going WWAAAYYY back in time. I was thinking this might be old so I was trying to find find the belt setup. lol this is a new video the belt vid hasn't dropped yet haha. 🤦🏻♂️
I have changed from hip to thigh holster my soft armour was fully opening my holster when sitting in the car even after adjusting the vest.
I have that problem partially. I carry a level 3 and sometimes it will click the thumb release on me. I'm thinking about going to a thigh holster but because of low back pain. Have you noticed any difference in your back after switching? Thanks.
@@2ndAmendment-Jeffrey After using the hip holster for many years. I think the thigh holster takes a bit of pressure off your hip and back during the shift, particularly when sitting in the car. Don't have the butt of the gun pushing against the back of the seat twisting you a bit when wearing the hip holster, if you know what I mean. Worth a try if you have some back issues might help. The soft body armour we were recently issued is fairly heavy so could be the cause of future back/hip problems. Take care mate.
06:45 - what is your opinion on permanently wearing a reflective vest, much like UK cops? I'd imagine that the occasion or being obliged to take it off to be concealed are much fewer than those where you need to put it on.
Brushem Teeth It differs over here in the U.K., some forces have permanent Hi-Viz body armour covers, whilst some don't and simply wear Hi-viz jackets or Tabard when required
Nice video brudda
Does SAFELIFE DEFENSE still make this style of vest?
What part of Illinois do u patrol my guy ?
what are the pistol and flash light pouches called
I remember a few years ago maybe 4 or 5 you said you carried a .40 because your department issued non bonded ammo. They still are issuing that in 2020?
He said in his other videos they switched duty ammo. But I don’t remember what video he mentioned it in but he said they switched duty ammo brands.
Can it stop green tips?
Are you still using those police suspenders & are you still using your Patrol Rifle for work? Never mind I watched the video & you still use the Patrol Rifle.
I plan on applying for Phoenix PD soon, Do you know if they allow this vest? i tried to look it up and found a few articles that said they wear "Class D or C" uniforms. Just curious if you would know or anyone else watching this video, thanks!
Every department has different rules.So you would need to check in with the officers.
Is the armor stab proof also?
That safe lite armor is like that dragon scale stuff
Which is what makes me skeptical. Dragon skin stopped bullets. But it was very fragile and quickly degraded the glue material holding the plates together in high heat.
You should try out Esstac magazine pouches. They are superior and look a lot cleaner on duty belts and vests in my opinion.
Seems like you don't have rifle mags with you anymore though on this vest, maybe add two of those so you really only need to grab your rifle?
Send a link to that bag pouch for the medical items
WHAT MODEL AND THIS BULLETPROOF VEST??
Looks like Dragons Skin!
Bianchi as basket we've belt
Hi I'm from Fiji a police officer and would like to get one of those vest ... huge fan though
You what’s up cool vest
I don’t see your IG live ☹️
1:37 - front n back protects against rifles.
2:07 - currently protects against 223 bullets
I would prefer full Molle and customize pouches as I want..
I can’t se the new duty belt video
Bro I saw a ad where he was in and I thought it was the video
Can anyone speak to how it feels to carry this much weight 40 hours a week? I know it’s great protection but 16 pounds is a lot of weight for everyday patrol
How long is soft armor good for, the set i was issued is 2001 and with my new outer carrier I don't have anyway to put a plate in it
Here is some expired armor we shot so you have a frame of refrence: th-cam.com/video/_sbN_Y6nnoc/w-d-xo.html
Soft armor is generally warrantied for 5 years. However, most testing reveals that armor as old as 20 years still stops all the rounds it was designed to.
What you have to worry about though is backface deformation. The standards in this regard have come leaps and bounds from what they were in 2001. While your vest in all likelihood (there are no guarantees obviously) will do just fine stopping rounds I recommend upgrading so that if you are shot your internal organs will not burst causing you to die anyway. This was a much larger problem back in the day than it is today with modern armor.
@@freefieldtraining
If I may ask, how are those magazine pouches secured to the carrier? That is a deciding factor in buying either safe life defense' first response carrier, or tactical carrier.
@@mghegotagun they attach via molle.
@@freefieldtraining
Ah I see. Thanks. What kind of molle pouches did you use for magazines, and did the magazines feel sufficiently secure in them? I was originally considering using safe life defense' first response carrier pouches for that purpose.
@@mghegotagun i use high speed gear brand pouches. They are the only ones I'm allowed to use. They work ok.
*No pepper spray on either the plate carrier or the belt? (Unless I missed it).*
Pepper spray sucks
Q or or R would be jealous with cops using his equipment designated only for OOs ONLY! LIKE JAME'S BOND! Lol. Robin get the plastic BAT CUFFS! LOL. You always have great stuff for a Illinois cop! I'm a Wisconsin cop Lol. Were neighbors!
I wish i had the police vest but it is nise
Where is that med pouch from?
ever find out where its from? I know the brand is "mexpedition" but can't find that specific one
Watching hand
I see you have an AFOSI badge on your body armor...did you earn it?
Good eye!! Just a prop for the thumbnail courtesy of a good friend..
Ah ok. Makes sense. Keep up the good videos!
@@freefieldtraining Sir, question regarding your latest video where u talk about vests. Why do you feel the urge to emphasise that US cops carrie guns? The way you said it sounded like US is the only country that carry guns, there are 195 countries in the world amd only 5, i say it again...5!!! Of them have unarmed officers. So please, be modest.
👍👍👍
Seen that multi tool from another youtuber
Not a huge fan of HSGI i recommend Esstac it has more retention and looks more professional in my opinion but your gear placement is 5stars!!
What is the model of the Maxpedition pouch?
Sadly, it was discontinued years back. I think it was called the "three by five" or "3x5".
@@freefieldtraining I concur. I can’t find it anywhere. It would’ve been perfect for my vest. Thank you for the reply!
What vest is that
Safelife Defense FRASS
Can you order that carrier if you're out of state?
Yes, you can best reach them on their Facebook or Instagram page, Eagle Uniform co
@@Born2doom Cool. Our local Uniform supply is called Shuttlers and they only offer a basic carrier with molle sewn on and it takes forever to get.
This company kills with with mesh lining, pockets behind the molle and additional customization.
$1200 soft armor but a chinesium gas station tier flashlights lol great video though
Funny ain't it - day to day, twelve hour shift, do the job experience speaks a subtly different message/ language from shall we diplomatically call it 'theory' based content. Find content here generally hugely useful and grateful for it.

Is that an Olight Warrior X?
Yes
M2R pro is a better duty light
Gear-do

Sorry that you have to be in Chicago😔
Please be safe brother man. It's getting politically ruthless out there.
sir i am from the netherlands and i dont know much about american law and everything ,
but isnt is unsafe to show what you are wearing and how it protects and against what/
i wish u all th ebest,, keeop the world safe , thank you for your work, good day
I want a vest please
I just cant believe they still issue level 2a garbage. It's not even 3a.
Three likes and 2 comments and I clicked 2 seconds after my Notification. Dang my YT is slow
I know you can't put a price on your life but $2000 for the armor is crazy
I can put a price on a cop's life.
55 cents.

It is absolute vaporware. I bought it 3 months ago and have nothing to show for it. The company is aware they are not meeting their obligations. Yet, they are not reaching out to customers who have already paid for products, and have done nothing to make it right.
Yoooo
David manganaro why do cicadas going on time I am miss good electrocuted by an animal winter what time send me a preview for the primaries I live in Queens Jamaica Avenue New York City Jamaica Queens acrylics 11435
I want to get into law enforcement
I respect all law enforcement
Your city officials must not like you guys very much if they are only issuing you guys level II. They really should be issuing you guys max rifle rated stuff.
Arlyfreefiedtraining
Who came from the duty belt video?
Yikes your department won't let you carry med supplies? Major red flag in my opinion.
