What is Level IIIA, and why does it matter? Level IIIA (3A) is the third-highest level of protection rated by the NIJ; usually the highest level available in soft body armor. This rating means that the BulletSafe vest will protect you from everything from a BB gun up to a .44 magnum. Don't settle for other vests that only meet the requirements for class IIA or class II. Class IIIA is the best protection you can find in a bulletproof vest.
Exchange for a different size: You may exchange your vest for a different size within 30 days. If you would like to exchange for a different size, please return the vest in "As New" condition and include a note with your return telling us what size you would like receive. "As New" means that the vest is perfect and can be immediately sold to another person.
We will mail you the correct size free of charge.
NOTE :We have the right to refuse your returned vest if not "AS New"and ship back to you at your expense.
