First Look: Full Forge Gear Featherweight Level IV Plates

MKS Supply and Full Forge Gear have partnered up to launch an ultra-lightweight 10×12-inch shooter’s cut ballistic panel with NIJ Level IV of projectile impact resistance.

These new Full Forge Gear Featherweight Level IV plates use modern materials and manufacturing techniques to keep the weight down and increase wearer comfort. Each ballistic panel weighs less than 6 pounds and is designed around being worn for extended periods of time without inducing wearer fatigue or discomfort. The “shooter’s cut” refers to the angle of the top left and right “corners” of a ballistic panel, and Full Forge Featherweight Level IV panel added this feature with wearer maneuverability in mind.

“We are thrilled to introduce the FeatherWeight Level IV Armor Plate to our lineup,” said Kara Brown-Boesenberg, EVP MKS Supply. “This plate represents our commitment to providing the highest quality tactical gear to professionals and civilians alike. With its unmatched protection and comfort, we believe it exceeds the standard in the industry, and we back that with a five-year warranty.”

Full Forge Gear Featherweight Level IV Plates Specifications:

  • Protection Level: NIJ Level IV (National Institute of Justice Standard 0101.06)
  • Weight: Extreme-lightweight design, weighing only 5.7 pounds
  • Thickness: Slim profile for enhanced maneuverability and concealment
  • Curve: Ergonomically contoured for a snug fit against the body
  • Coating: Durable outer coating for resistance against abrasions and environmental factors
  • Affordability: Engineered to provide premium protection at an affordable price point, ensuring accessibility without compromising quality
  • Applications: Suitable for law enforcement, security personnel, and civilians seeking reliable ballistic Level IV protection

The NIJ (National Institute of Justice) is the regulating authority tasked with setting standards for ballistic armor and panels. With the Featherweight Armor’s Level IV rating, it can withstand impacts from the vast majority of the standard calibers for rifle, shotgun and pistol.
