This video tests RMA Armors Level IV ceramic plates, focusing on their affordability and backface deformation. The plates successfully stopped 7.62x54R rounds with minimal deformation, and even held up against a .338 Lapua Magnum, though with significant deformation. The instructor emphasizes that while this testing is not scientific, it provides valuable consumer insight into the product's performance.

This review details the performance of Battle Steel Level III+ armor plates against various threats, including M855, 7.62x39, M80 ball, and 10mm. The plates, constructed with ceramic and polyethylene, offer a balance of weight and protection at a competitive price point. Expert analysis highlights their effectiveness against common rifle rounds and handgun threats, making them a viable option for budget-conscious individuals seeking reliable ballistic protection.

This video tests the ballistic performance of a Shot Stop Level III UHMWPE plate against M855 and M855A1 ammunition, both directly and when placed behind simulated backpack contents like newspapers and a laptop. The plate, not rated for these rounds, surprisingly stopped all tested projectiles without perforation, demonstrating impressive resilience. The presenter emphasizes that this is an informal test and not a guarantee of performance in real-world scenarios.
