Munitions grade armor now available.
Posted: Tue Oct 16, 2001 11:19 am
From Mad Matt's armory. Same quality you've come to expect as far as form fit and function. The difference? Munitions items are made from hot rolled mild steel instead of cold rolled and left unpolished.
This means munitions stuff will have an unpolished blackish look to it due to the fact that there's the scale left on the steel from the hot rolling process.
Why would you want this stuff that's not all shiny and pretty? Well it's cheaper.
What's available in munitions grade? Basically every plate item that has visible plates (ie no munitions coat of plates). Prices are on the site both the same regular price for the polished stuff that was there before and the new deproved munitions prices.
Got any examples of what the stuff looks like? Well no not yet but I've got a couple orders for munitions stuff already so when I get back from the southern armor in and after Halloween weekend I'll be making some and will have some examples.
Any questions or comments feel free to post em here or drop me an e-mail.
Basicly all of the plate stuff currently resides in the german transitional section of my site. Go there and keep clickin thumbnails for more info and more pics.
Note: There's a chance posting this will end up bumping my site over the meagre bandwith allowance which is measured by the hour. If you go to my site and it's down just wait till the next hour and try again.
