Police Riot gear
Hey,

just found out I can get ex police riot gear (leg, arm and thigh protectors)
Worth grabbing a few sets do you think?

Probably not going to be in a riot (which is good as you'll look like the old bill wearing this set up) but could be useful for other activities? Riding a cow/horse/motorbike?

RE: Police Riot gear
I would say so. Can you get the more important chest / head protection?

Yup. I can get you german police ceramic body armour plates if you want?

They're not cheap though!

£60 a pair

But you need to get a plate carrier / ballistic vest to stick 'em in too, so you're looking at £100ish to get the whole thing sorted out.

Aye, they do indeed come in different sizes. They look to be adjustable also.

RE: Police Riot gear
not sure i'd want to hump those plates about again , they were heavy restrictive and uncomfortable 20+ years ago when i was 5st lighter and fit as butchers dog...not sure i'd be upto it now unless they've improved shit loads.

combined stab ballistic vest might be worth a look....i can see it might be a decent precaution when you go liberating stores and equipment as you never know what you might meet on the other side of a door.
