Body armor like guns, is already prohibited for felons to have in their possession. Any violent crime committed while wearing it can add charges, time and points to a person.
Pretty sure the felony conviction has to be from a crime of violence, too. So non-violent convictions would not prohibit a felon from purchasing/possessing body armor under federal law. I could be wrong.
