Steel Core Body Armor and Ceramic Composite Body Armor Returns

Body Armor Packages |

If you purchased a body armor package, you are able to return the WHOLE package, no partial returns are accepted. (example: you cannot keep just the plate carrier and return just the plates) When shipping the body armor package back to us please, please, please, DO NOT ship the package back with the plates in the plate carrier, this causes damage to the plate carrier during its long journey back to our facility, you will be charged for the plate carrier damages.

Steel Core Body Armor |

We will accept returns on this product up to 60 days from the date of delivery. Due to this product being Steel Core Armor we are able to offer a greater return window. We understand that steel core body armor can be a bit heavier than other body armor plates. With that being said we will accept the return as long as it is shipped back following our packaging procedures and has a visible RMA # on the return box.

Composite Ceramic Body Armor |

Due to the nature of these products we have a smaller return window. These products will only be accepted 10- business days from the time of delivery. We will process a FULL refund minus the shipping costs on this product.

The return must be properly packaged to protect against damage in transit. Please note that any damage caused by mishandling, or product defacement will result in your return being denied and the product being returned to you.
