body armor for "regular guys"

[Harry Seifert]

Horton, The suits are made here in California, in the city of San Marcos about 25 mi north of San Diego. When I bought my suit two years ago, I picked it up at the factory. There were ten or so industrial sewing machines in action with big bolts of Kevlar and other materials stacked around the plant floor. Didn't see any Chinese tho................. Buddy
