WTT Second Chance Body Armor

MarshJr · Mar 11, 2005

I have a 8 month old second chance vest for trade. It has 2 carriers (the fabric that holds the armor plates)blue and white as well as a trauma plate for the chest. The vest has adjustable velcro straps so it will fit just about anyone (i weigh about 200lbs and it was just about perfect.) This vest was only used for training and is in like new condition.

Im not sure what model it is but my police academy bought it for about 7 hundred bucks. Im going to a department that is issuing me a better one and i just want to get rid of it. Im not looking for anything near the new price, and i will entertain any offers.

Ive got pictures as well if you would like to see them lemme know and i can send em via email.

What model vest is this? Does this vest use Zylon?

MarshJr · Mar 11, 2005

I have no idea if this is one of the zylon vests or not. It says its level IIa and the model is SUPERfeatherlite IIAZ+LSC.

thats the same one.

Marsh, I just checked the website about this vest - SC's website says the vest is Twaron, which is a very good ballistic fiber if woven.

Here is the webpage on the current model Second Chance Superfeatherlite

Best of luck,
