Click (HERE) For 4S17M 10x12 Shooters Cut (7.2lbs).


DESCRIPTION:
The Highcom Guardian 4S17M Multi Curve Level 4 SAPI Cut Plates are an NIJ 0101.06 Certified Level 4 Standalone Multi Curve plate that offers fantastic and reliable protection at an affordable cost.
The 4S17M SAPI Cut comes in a multitude of sizes from Extra Small to Extra Large!

Shooters cut version at 7.2lbs also avaliable (HERE)

The 4S17M is Multi Hit rated against .30-06 M2 Armor Piercing, 7.62x54R B32-API, 7.62x51mm M61 Armor Piercing, 7.62x39 API, M80A1, M855A1 and more!
The multi curve profile on this plate allows for the armor to better conform to your body, which spreads out weight evenly across your upper body, reducing fatigue during long term wear.
These plates are both NIJ 0101.06 Certified and DEA Special Threat compliant.
The NIJ .06 certification on this plate means they undergo severe drop tests during certification and are not fragile or easily damaged. 
These plates come in all the standard SAPI sizes, including the rare Extra Small size.
These plates are of course made in the US, along with all of our other armor.
The Highcom Guardian 4S17M is one of Highcom Armor's top sellers. 
Please note that due to global unrest and conflict there may be a short lead time for popular sizes.

 

Optional Side Plates:
You can also choose to add matching spec Highcom 4S17 Level 4 Side Plates, which come in 6x6", 6x8", 5x7" and 5x8" starting at 2.5lbs per plate and $319 per set. 
These offer the same reliable NIJ certified and multi hit level 4 protection.

About Highcom:

Highcom is one of the largest domestic manufacturers and one of only a handful of US armor companies who fully manufacture their plates in house and heat press their own backers. 

They are also one of the only companies with their own In House Ballistic Testing Laboratory (See Here), which allows them to perform ballistic tests on every single batch of armor before being shipped to end users. 

Highcom was established in 1997 and has been making armor for over 25 years, they were one of the first US manufacturers to sell ceramic level 4s to civilians.

Highcom currently has 17 hard and soft armor models active on the NIJ Certified Products List. 

Highcom is a lesser known company due to the fact they are primarily a government/ military supplier.

    Placed my order for the 4S17M SAPI Cut Multi Curve Level 4 Plates on 9/21/23 in a SAPI Small. Delivered 9/26. I'm about 5'6 148-155, with a measurement of 9" nipple to nipple. They fit to the body as expected (seemingly the perfect fit) while maintaining mobility/movement. They did ship to me fast with no indication or tracking number, they just showed up. I live in NE Ohio, and to my surprise they shipped from Ohio down south so that may play a factor in fast lead time/shipping. I'm satisfied!

    Couldn't find a more "affordable" set of Large SAPIs for my JPC. John pointed me in the right direction. Great choice, will be back for some side plates.

    I'm a smaller guy and my 10x12s didn't fit great. Got these in a Small SAPI and they fit much better.

    Was finding it difficult to get some reasonably priced USA manufactured and NIJ certified Large SAPIs for a reasonable price. These checked all the boxes for me. Thanks Apex!
