GTS specializes in the development and manufacturing of ceramic armor plates. We have noticed an industry need for quality plate carriers and vests that can retain the ceramic particulate that can eject from the ceramic strike face over multiple impacts. Mediocre armor built with inadequate strike face elements that restrict ceramic particles can be mitigated through an extremely well-built carrier. Our GTS carrier adds multi-plies of 1670 denier ballistic Cordura® to each plate pocket. This helps eliminate penetration of ceramic shards through the carrier fabric that can occur with poorly-built carriers or ceramic armor. In many of our tests, normal plate carriers come to pieces when struck by a projectile. Look at the video below showing the GTS carrier shot with .30 caliber M2 AP. The carrier handles it with only a small entry hole showing in the fabric.
We do not carry accessories. Laser cut Molle is adaptable to any of your favorite accessory suppliers.

Owner called me direct, within 5 minutes of receiving my message. Communicated with me every step of the process. Great plates, that are lightweight and have the appropriate curvature. Would highly recommend.
I like the product..but they never seem to keep me updated. Waiting for my 3rd ballistic armor. I have them archived 3 different dates. Because i feel they have shorted me before but can't prove it.
