RMA 1155 plates with carrier (body armor review)

hey guys welcome back to my channel okay so i made this video yesterday but i'm not going to upload that video because i was excited i'm super excited to get my plate carrier in and i don't think it was an honest and fair review my um because at that time i said it wasn't heavy most likely due to all the adrenaline rushing through my body because today is a different story so with that being said let's get into the video okay so guys um this to give you guys a little insight this is my first ever body armor so um i will first ever body armor i went with a plate carrier reason why is due to the fact that what's happening in the world specifically in las vegas especially with everyone buying like when you walk into a gun store you rarely see rifles and and and that's kind of scary you know so um i definitely wanted something that i knew could withstand that more so than just a just a regular vest that's comfortable and um not saying this isn't comfortable but just personally just a regular vest that possibly might be more comfortable but offers less protection so i just went all out um with that being said let me get into the price um and then i get into everything else so the price was 334.95 to the t now with shipping i paid uh 31.75 so in total this best or sorry excuse me this plate carrier will cost you 366.70 now if you just want the plates sorry guys i'm looking at my phone now if you just want the plates um the plates will run you about 135 dollars per plate if i am correct yes 135 dollars per plate and this is the model 1155 um so are 1155 one five five it is nij certified um and this is ceramic and polyether something thing something out i can't pronounce it but you guys know what i'm talking about anyways um these plates are super thick i will take them off in a minute for you guys but right now i just wanted to give you guys the price and i ordered it at rma so it's rma body armor um if you guys don't know about them i suggest you guys go look it up on youtube this plate can withstand a lot i mean like it got ran over by a semi truck shot um multiple times with multiple big ass rounds these big rounds and very little bulge if any in the backing they actually say that it states that it is a stand-alone plate so you don't need no trauma backing or anything i mean you can have that if you want that for extra protection hey um if you have the money to to afford like extra protection or like i know sometimes or i think i seen like a vest like a regular vest and it had a plate care insert so if you guys want one of those go for it i don't see why not if you can afford it why not this is just what i can afford and i really like it and it looks dope um so i'm not really a tactical guy or anything like a lot of you know the youtube people out there but i did want something that will protect me because a lot of people are just buying guns and long um magazines you know that can hold a lot of rounds but no nobody's truly buying body organisms like if something do happen with the world i hope it doesn't but and it goes you know south and you end up in potentially a gunfight i don't you can't be you can't shoot nobody when you're already being hit and you're on the ground bleeding out so the rounds that you carry is pretty much pointless if you don't have one of these with that being said guys um some of the main changes so i'm gonna get to the main changes and then the things that i like so some of the main changes that i've seen from yesterday is this is heavy i'm not even gonna lie to you guys you guys this is heavy now um is it worth the wait yes it's worth the wait got me wait even though this took almost a month to get through i mean to get into me it's definitely worth the wait not the weight that's a joke anyways guys yes so this is pretty significantly heavy um but with that being said knowing what this knowing what this can take it's actually more beneficial to have this right so i knew what i was getting into when i got into it and i know why i got into it right i wanted something that i knew i can uh you know i can i can like have my life depend on it and this works i know a lot of people like spend a lot of money on other things i think they have a lighter version of the 1155 plate but like i said before i'm not rich and this does me just fine plus i work workout so it's not as heavy to me but it is a little bit of weight to it but you would definitely get used to it it's not bad i don't want to make it sound like it's like a brick it's not a brick you can just feel that it's heavy it's a lot heavier off you when you pick it up than it is when you place it on your body so that's pretty much the main thing that i see that change from yesterday till today is just a little bit heavy but if you frequently wear it around the house or you get like i have like a 10 pound weighted vest that i run with so that kind of offset and so it doesn't feel like that much to me really um with that being said i don't have any side plates um i kind of wish i would have got the side plates i listened to the internet and a lot of other people on the internet talking about this stuff and i wish i would have never done that because the plates on the side look well these plates feel very sturdy and the plates on the side only around you about 189.99 for two and their six by six plates goes right here and goes right here uh i know you guys see my customized glock i just put that in here just to put that in there it's added a little extra in the video i know it has a button here so it's already i snapped it back together so it can't come out um but i could pull it out if i wanted to pull it out guys um but it comes with a whole bunch of accessories now when i say it comes with a whole bunch of accessories i mean you can buy a whole bunch of accessories to it um but the plate carrier itself it's very um i can feel quality in it i'm not even gonna you guys it feels like quality it feels like it can take a lot of damage um which i think is really really cool so that being said this is already safety check thought off to the side and then i'm gonna get up see if i can actually boom so that'll work i'm gonna get up give you guys a review of everything so here's your side here's the back and i'm about six three at 180 i want to say 180 pounds give or take as you guys can see it's very comfortable i am not hot at all if you guys told me that i had to wear this all day i can wear this all day it won't be a problem at all but with that being said you have uh these are very comfortable very thick pads you can actually hear it so that's pretty dope um this is a strap that you can pull to tighten up you can also tighten this up if you want to they have these things guys i don't know what this is for but i'm sure you tactical people know what the hell that is but if that's something you're looking for they have that um what else do they have that's pretty cool oh um they have let me pop that off it's like a thing there that goes underneath there after all the bear which is pretty cool because i'm super skinny it's like this guys you see how i can actually put this over here to tighten it up and for you bigger guys if you kind of like scared check that out look at all that room guys think of that look at all that room that's a lot of room so for you bigger guys um you can definitely fit this and for your skinny guys you can definitely fit this and it's high quality i can feel the quality i can feel i'm not even bullshitting you guys i'll tell you right now about wasting my money bro i can feel the quality in this and it looks badass something that i personally didn't want was um i wanted all black because i figured all black blends in with pretty much everything you don't look too out there so i mean like you don't look too you like you know what you're doing and you kind of blend in into urban environments or any environment and that's the thing that i wanted to do i wanted to blend in i didn't want to stand out so i didn't want to use no um camo green or no um no tan any type of tan or any type of that looked like i was in the u.s army because i'm not but still i just want it to look normal and that's the reason why all my stuff is black i don't have anything glaring off my guns i don't have nothing it's just shaped black outside of my revolver which is um i don't know what that is nickel plated or chrome or something i don't really care but i really wanted that gun since forever so that is going to be an exception but with that being said guys it's i can do a whole bunch of push-ups if i wanted to with this it's not heavy um it's not heavy at all it doesn't move up and down either um but yeah so i'll take it off for you guys so it goes like button right there right and then i'm very strong so if you see me struggling with this it's because it's uh it's made of good quality so with that being said i'm just going to take one side off so this side normally take it off and just let you guys know like i said before this is my first body armor ever and i didn't need to look at anything to understand how to do this so you guys should be perfectly fine there's a strap in the back right here so i i do that just so i don't have to pull it over my head guys um so let me move that out of the way i'm gonna move this and by the way the plates are let's see what the plates are for you guys the plate size is uh 10 by 12. yeah 10 by 12 standalone there is a 10 year manufacturer warranty on it and it's about 8.3 pounds or 3.5 or 3.49 kilograms or kg pretty dope anyways guys so let me show you how this is so this is it just like that there's the back there's this side there's the side okay here's the inside you guys can see it's kind of got like um you know the that netting that women wear sometimes under like the lady the legging crap that's how that is and with that being said i'm going to take out one plate for you guys and the plates is high quality too but yeah so with that being said you honestly don't even have to take off any of that you just pull it from the bottom so you have a strap here it's all straight guys see how high quality that is guys you can hear but you have a strap see that strap guys you can pull that you don't have to but you can pull that it makes it your life easier then like if that wasn't enough safety right after i didn't pop that off i have to pull all this off right now to add more taste to it you have this this goes in the inside to strap around your plate which is more safety and then if you actually look in the inside guys you have let me see if i can pull it out grab that i don't know if you can see that but if you can it's something that actually holds your plate against your body so it's super high quality and then here's your plate bus that's your plate there's the backing so you guys know i'm not bullshitting you guys for whatever reason i don't know why someone would do that but there's a backing that's how much it covers and i've never actually put on body armor before because like i said i never had one so from my understanding it's supposed to go a little under you know notching your neck and then right above your belly button if i'm correct if i'm not doing someone let me know in the comments please but yeah so it's really nice it's dope a sale it's very thick guys that's really thick i don't really have nothing to show you guys i think that is but i guess i use my finger so i don't know take it for what it's worth guys i don't know if that's gonna help you but shit's thick um what else can i tell you guys about the plate it's very soft you see how i'm like it's soft i'm assuming that's that that cushion stuff in case it falls if you hurt for fine and then the back is very hard and solid you can definitely hear it but yeah man i've seen this um plate get hit with like almost everything dude and i was like hell yeah you know that's dope i was like why wouldn't i get that i need some body armor so instead of buying another gun i bought some body on it definitely worth it so the way you put it back in is you just slide it in however you want to slide it in there voila just like that got your strap here oh by the way i am not sponsored by these guys trust me i will let you guys know if they did sponsor me i put this best to its paces like even more than what people did on youtube i drop it from like a building and then i shoot it a lot but obviously i'm not sponsored by them and this is the only one and a half it's only the best i have and i definitely don't want to do that to this and then wait another month that would definitely suck right guys that'll suck so after i put that in there then the flap goes over which is that and then you have your last strap like that pop after you do that you have that's pretty cool didn't know that so then after that you have to put your wrist yeah i mean your plate carrier back on you do that by putting it over your head like so right and then the next thing you do you have a buckle right you guys see it i buckled it boom then you left snap grab this oh and that's where the side plates go if you guys want to know i mean i'm sure you guys know but that's it right here then you got to do this like that you're pretty much already finished once you buckle this down you are finished and then you got a pouch you can actually put stickers or whatever you want here the tactical guys are probably like our girls are perfect bro why are you curling more precious stickers i don't care anyways guys that is pretty much this and like i said before it was very easy to put on very simple pretty cool i really like the look of it it looks dope as like i said before it is very comfortable just to show you guys how comfortable it is um like i said i'm six three right i bent down and touched my um my my feet perfectly fine right i didn't twist perfectly fine i'm not like i can reach out grab something right i can do i'm not trying to look probably silly but i'm sure you guys want to see if it actually works like is it flexible so dude i look hella silly but anyways guys like i said before hope you see how flexible it is hope you can see the quality i would tell you guys straight up if it was not not of quality um and for my understanding i have nothing bad to say about it from the reviews i read i said good 95 to 99 were positive um actually really i would say good 99 were positive so it's dope if you need a budget plate carrier for around three to four hundred bucks this is definitely the one for you um if you just need the plates they offer the plates for 135 for one or i think 270 for two so super dope i didn't show you guys the back because the back looked just like the front so there was no point but with that being said thank you so much for watching my video and i will see you guys on my next one you
