Question about the travisty

[DD977GM2]

Chief Oates already stated he had "Ballistic protection" like police use- an interview with him the other day he stated that he was wearing equipment similar to Aurora SWAT with the exception of one thing (I'm thinking maybe the helmet) and that's what got the PD's attention to him and cause for the arrest. The info I've heard it sounds like he had ballistic protection on his chest, neck, groin, and thighs, possibly shoulders too (Like the DAPS the military issues).

I have heard this, mainly before Sunday morning, then Sunday morning on I have heard he didnt have any and it was just a tacitcal load bearing vest and drop leg holster.

So looks like he didn't purchase the plates, which would have been over a grand.

[DeusExMachina]

That vest is a load bearing vest only.

So, if this information is accurate, a couple of well placed rounds CoM would have ended the threat?

[CrufflerSteve]

Yep. Of course, it was a gun-free zone so that couldn't have happened. Maybe he was just going for the look or he blew the rest of his money on hookers.

Body armor will keep you from bleeding out but you are still going to be slowed down if you get shot. Double tap COM, repeat as necessary.
