British Army Flak Vest

Pretty cool! What Era is it?

Hi,

I believe it is the one worn in Northern Ireland, and made before the one sold in 1/6th scale by Armoury.
Timescale i would say mid 1960's until the late 1980's.

Very cool... soo... your gonna be producing these and selling them?

Hi,

If i could point you to this post in the Open Market.
I have been asked to help the manufacturer with this project.

wow, great stuff, I am tempted, but I can't find the price anywhere on the site?

Hi,

The price for the combined items is - £14 UK Pounds with free shipping.

I hope that helps.

Price in $USD posted in the thread Gary linked.

Are there plans to do more runs if this is successful, Gary? (and if so, larger runs with a reduced per/item price?) I believe these will do well, just wondering if there'd be more after the initial lot is sold.

Hi,

Many thanks for the replies and the price conversion for me.

I am hoping that if the set is successful the manufacturer will produce more, which hopefully will be avaliable seperatly. At the moment as you have described it is a limited run, and that does reflect slightly in the price. Also it is a sort of experiment to see if there is enough demand for these sets, and if so i am hoping that other items will be produced.

I have arranged after a long discussion about the sets, that they be made avaliable directly from the manufacturer. This way the price is actually lower than they would be if another company bought them all, and then resold them at what i would expect could be a higher price.

I hope that this can help?

Hi... any chance you can do a Osprey Body Armour too? That'll b a dream come true...

Hi,

As i mentioned it is all a bit of an experiment at the moment, to see if there is enough demand for the ideas and pieces.
