    Post SHOT Show Wrapup – Galactac AR500 Ballistic Armor Suit

    Sunday, January 31st, 2016

    IMG_0418

    Artist Ryan B. Flowers has been selling his Mandalorian-inspired Galactac armor sets for a while now, but this is the first time one’s been made of actual ballistic armor, and it has some high-profile industry names behind its creation. Ballistic armor manufacturer AR500, Heckler & Koch, SureFire, SOG Knives, Team Wendy, Armasight, and TEA Headsets all threw their support, and products, into the development of what is essentially a set of contemporary ballistic Mandalorian armor. This set was floating around the SHOT Show floor, spending its time between the H&K and AR500 booths, the later where we found it and took a few photos for your perusal.

    Stay tuned for the further info on the development of this suit at a later date.

    You can get a set of the non ballistic armor at www.galac-tac.com/home.
