Should civilians be allowed to wear bullet proof vests?

Now he works for Michigan-based Armor Express and sells the same brand of bulletproof vest that saved his life.To get more news about hard bulletproof vest, you can visit bulletproofboxs.com official website.

He said that criminals who wear bulletproof vests "change the whole dynamic" for cops, who are trained to shoot at the torso, because it's a large target with vital organs.

Cops going up against an armored criminal "would have to shoot him in the head," said Murphy. The head is a more difficult target to hit.

Murphy ought to know. He's riddled with scars from the 2012 shooting.

"I was shot ten times in the appendages," said Murphy. He pulled up his sleeves to reveal bullet-pocked arms. One of his fingertips was shot off.

He said that three of the shots hit his torso and would have been fatal, but they were stopped by the Armor Express vest. He was exhibiting the product at the SHOT Show, the annual conference of the National Shooting Sports Foundation.

Isaac Hatch, co-founder of HWI Inc. in Centennial, Colorado, was showing a different sort of body armor. It's a suit called the Elite Defender -- riot armor with breast and groin plates, arm guards, warrior boots and a visor helmet. Hatch said he's received 1,000 pre-orders from various police departments.

Orders for his armor have been on the rise since the riots of Baltimore, Chicago and Ferguson, Missouri, Hatch said. Unlike Armor Express, it's not even bullet-resistant but designed for riot-style weapons like bricks and bottles.

Hatch dons the armor and tests it with help of his brother, co-founder Clinton Hatch, who beats him with a bat. "My brother's no Barry Bonds, but he swings pretty hard," said Hatch.

Armor Express and the Hatch brothers have never sold a suit to a civilian. But they could, if they wanted to.Cops have been concerned about criminals wearing bulletproof armor ever since the infamous Los Angeles bank robbery of 1997, when two armored gunmen turned North Hollywood in a war zone. Outgunned cops broke into a gun store to try and get firearms that could pierce the gunmen's body armor. They killed one of them by shooting him in the head. The other died in custody.
