The Home Shield takes its design cues from the proven design of Premier Body Armor\u2019s Level III+ STRATIS ballistic shield used by law enforcement. Level III armor, which is equivalent to the newly introduced NIJ RF1, is tested to stop 7.62mm FMJ lead core rifle ammunition. This makes it suitable for situations where there is a risk of facing rifle fire. Level III+, while not an official NIJ armor level, exceeds Level III and is akin to the new NIJ RF2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It forms a strong, flexible, and seamless coating on the surface and provides protection against abrasion and impacts. It is also environmentally friendly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Home Shield has hardened steel hardware that eliminates any vulnerabilities on the strikeface. There are no weak points that could be exploited by incoming projectiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Home Shield Design<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Home Shield takes its design cues from the proven design of Premier Body Armor\u2019s Level III+ STRATIS ballistic shield used by law enforcement. Level III armor, which is equivalent to the newly introduced NIJ RF1, is tested to stop 7.62mm FMJ lead core rifle ammunition. This makes it suitable for situations where there is a risk of facing rifle fire. Level III+, while not an official NIJ armor level, exceeds Level III and is akin to the new NIJ RF2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Premier Body Armor basically reduced the STRATIS into a lighter and more affordable Level IIIA shield that anyone in the family can use. From a small child to the elderly, the Shield provides all the protection needed. It has the same hardware as its big brother, and for home defense, Level IIIA is definitely not a compromise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found the Home Shield to be not only very easy to handle and maneuver but also convenient to use with a handgun. This is essential, considering its intended application. The Home Shield is equipped with two handles\u2014one adjustable nylon strap for universal fit and comfort and one duty-rated polymer handle for a secure grip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"The<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It can be used ambidextrously and either single-handed or two-handed, if you don\u2019t have a firearm. The shield\u2019s trimmed, angled corners allow for supported one-handed manipulation of a defensive handgun. This feature significantly enhances the user\u2019s ability to defend themselves effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NIJ Accredited Laboratory Tested<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Home Shield\u2019s design is considered industry-leading. It is multi-hit capable, offering duty-rated durability and grab-and-go functionality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I did not go out and shoot the sample Home Shield provided for evaluation. That would serve no useful purpose other than providing something additional to write about. Premier Body Armor has its armor tested by NIJ-accredited laboratories in accordance with NIJ standards. The lab test results are available on Premier Body Armor\u2019s website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Final Thoughts<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Premier Body Armor Home Shield is top-tier protective gear designed with the homeowner in mind. Its combination of Level IIIA protection, lightweight design, durability, versatility, and user-friendly features make it an excellent choice for home defense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether you\u2019re looking for a shield for everyday home protection or a higher level of defense with the Level III+ STRATIS shield, Premier Body Armor has you covered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Home Shield has an MSRP of $439.00 and comes with an 8-year warranty. Premier Body Armor offers quick fulfillment of orders and has an easy return and exchange policy,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Weighing only 3.8 lbs and with a thickness of only 5mm (thinner than an iPhone\u00ae), the Home Shield is designed to be handled and stored easily. Measuring 15\"x 18\", it is large enough to cover most of the upper torso of an average-sized man. However, it is still compact enough to be stored discreetly in various areas of your home for quick access, from your bedroom to your living room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The compact size and light weight also make it more maneuverable in tight quarters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Construction of the Shield<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Home Shield is constructed of domestically sourced polyethylene and features a protective polyurea coating. Polyethylene is a type of plastic known as a polyolefin resin, widely used for its strength, durability, and lightweight properties. However, its ballistic applications rely on a specific form called Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ballistic effectiveness of UHMWPE is not solely due to its plastic nature. Its strength also comes from the polyethylene fibers that are woven, layered, and then pressed together under tremendous pressure. This process results in a material with the highest impact strength of any thermoplastic, making it ideal for use in ballistic shields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"The<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The polyurea coating on the shield provides an exceptionally waterproof protective layer that enhances the shield\u2019s longevity and durability. It forms a strong, flexible, and seamless coating on the surface and provides protection against abrasion and impacts. It is also environmentally friendly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This level of protection is ideal for any homeowner and provides a significant advantage in a home defense scenario. Taking the time to grab and put on a body armor vest is not always a practical option when things go bump in the night. The Home Shield addresses this.
