Taking Security Seriously With Bullet Proof Polo

By Margarita Joseph


The military research that goes into various products would surprise most regular people. When the United States Military decides to research something to determine if it holds value for them they leave no stone unturned. Imagine what they could find to use the bullet proof polo for. This is an amazing technology that has had some astounding tests already.

IT is not something that anybody expects or even believes. In nearly all cases of people wearing a bullet proof vest are wearing an actual vest. A very large and bulky and very noticeable vest. Even the versions that are smaller and lighter are hard to conceal. Hidden under a shirt is not really hidden. Not when it makes you look like the hulk under the shirt.

There has been a lot of testing over the years on different variations of protection. Ceramic plates, Kevlar, and various other materials were tried. Some failed while others did well. But the so-called "Holy Grail" of protection is something that has not been found yet, although some scientists have boasted about their possible victories in the lab they fail in the field.

This is a very difficult subject and one that every one takes very seriously. Some of these have been suggested to be put into schools because of the recent events involving school shooting. It would be a great idea however if someone really wants to shoot to kill, a vest will not stop them from aiming and shooting for the head.

This is where the good guys win one. Because the person being protected was wearing a bullet proof polo it did not look like he was wearing protection at all. This is where the bad guys went wrong. They assumed that he was an easy kill because of no protection so they went for the kill shot in the chest. Problem for them was that he was wearing something.

Because the target is wearing normal clothes the shooter aims for the chest and takes two or three easy shots. He does this because not only will the shots kill him, but they are easy because the chest is a much bigger target than the head. Since the shooter is not worried about missing, he takes a couple shots and gets away. What he does not realize is that the target was wearing protective clothing.

He was wearing the polo shirt that looks just like any other. While the shots hurt very bad the target is alive and well and that is all that matters. Now whatever the target needs to do will get done. However they must be prepared because once the shooter finds out that he is indeed alive he will be back. At least now security will be prepared for him.

A bullet proof polo is not only something law enforcement will be extremely interested in but as a matter of fact, everybody. There is not a market in the world that would not want something like this. The technology should be closely guarded because putting this power into the hands of the bad guys would be a big mistake.
