Chase Tactical LVPC-ELITE Aktiv-Shooter-Kit - Stufe IIIA

What is included in the Chase Tactical LVPC-ELITE Active Shooter Kit?

The kit includes: one (1) Chase Tactical Low Vis Plate Carrier Elite (LVPC-E) in your selected color, and two (2) Chase Tactical SA3100 Level IIIA 10"×12" Shooter's Cut Soft Armor Panels (front and rear). The SA3100 panels are certified to NIJ Standard 0101.06 Level IIIA. The kit does not include hard armor plates, MOLLE pouches, or medical supplies. All sales are final on this item due to the ballistic armor content.

Will the LVPC-ELITE stop rifle rounds?

No — the included SA3100 Level IIIA soft armor panels provide certified protection against handgun threats only (9mm, .357 SIG, .40 S&W, .44 Magnum up to the NIJ IIIA standard). Level IIIA does not protect against rifle ammunition (5.56mm, 7.62mm, etc.). The LVPC-E carrier is designed to accept 10"×12" hard armor plates in addition to soft armor, allowing operators to add rifle-rated Level III or IV hard plates for enhanced protection when the threat environment requires it.

How long does the LVPC-ELITE Active Shooter Kit take to ship?

Due to the ballistic armor content, the LVPC-ELITE Active Shooter Kit may take 2–3 weeks for shipment. Soft armor panels are regulated items and require production-queue processing. Note that all sales are final on this product — returns are not accepted except for manufacturer defects. Connecticut shipments are restricted to Law Enforcement or Military purchasers only (LE/MIL only for CT).

What is the total weight of the LVPC-ELITE kit when fully loaded with the included armor?

The LVPC-E carrier weighs approximately 1.8 lbs empty. The two Level IIIA soft armor panels add approximately 1.7 lbs total (based on ~0.85 lbs per 10"×12" SA3100 panel). Fully loaded with both panels, the complete kit weighs approximately 3.5 lbs — significantly lighter than hard armor plate carrier systems, which typically weigh 8–14 lbs with rifle-rated plates.

Can the LVPC-ELITE carrier be worn concealed under clothing?

Yes — the LVPC-E is a low-visibility (low-vis) plate carrier specifically designed for discreet wear under outer garments or over minimal clothing. At approximately 3.5 lbs with armor, it can be worn under a jacket, external shirt, or similar outer layer. The carrier's slim profile, elastic sides, and moisture-wicking inner liner are optimized for extended concealed wear. The external profile is noticeably slimmer than standard plate carriers with hard armor, though it remains more visible than a concealed soft armor vest worn against the body.
