Let customers speak for us
Wilson was a great help to me in getting these plates. The plates are very high quality and packaged very well to protect them en route. I chose these plates because the I believe the anti frag top fabric will potentially give me a better chance at staying in the fight by not getting ceramic fragments and dust in my eyes and keeping the ceramic in place will potentially keep the integrity of the plates for greater multi hit performance. Wilson also was a big factor in this purchase. He was great at answering all my questions and helping me to pick the best set for me. I would highly recommend these plates. They are top notch quality.
Shipped fast super great quality..came in lighter than competitors with same protection. Was impressed with how they made my plate to order for my specific plate carrier size 10x13..love GTS price was very reasonable
I've been losing weight and I needed something to fit me while I'm on this weight loss grind. This was the perfect carrier for that. It fits perfect once adjusted. It's been comfortable to wear during my full 8 hour shifts jumping in and out of a car all day.
Ive had my plate going on a year and I've been 100% satisfied with them. The fit and finish its perfect. after watching a few GTS videos I knew these were what I was looking for. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them . Now I'm considering a new set.
These plates are awesome! So good my son wanted a set. Highly recommend this company if your in the market for body armor.
These plates are solid. The GTS is a great company . Their products are solid. Will def be buying again.
Great plates at a great price
Reached out and was able to get in contact with someone and they helped me find what was perfect for me! Quick shipping and great communication would definitely order again!
Wwll made light fits carrier grate fast shipping have nothing bad at all to say but thank you
Spoke on the phone with Wilson, he answered all of my questions and was very informative, I placed my order on a Friday he told me he was going to hand assemble them himself, while sending me pictures and videos of the process which was an experience I don’t think you will get anywhere else, I received my plates well packaged within 5 days, unbelievably fast from start to finish, will definitely be ordering another set soon.
Listen these plates are amazing quality I’ve paid for the more known brands at a way higher price and they are literally not even as well made as these, I have absolutely zero negative things to say the shipping was fast and very well packaged and the plates stop atleast 4 rounds of 30-06 ap what’s not to love. I just hope that this company stays true to its roots the more they become known unlike other companies that raise prices and lower standards the more known they are. Highly recommend.
They look nice. I have not used them in a plate carrier at this time.
always best price and great quality look. buy from someone who actually takes pride in what they make! my whole carrier is GTS!
Ive been messaging Gilliam tactical for awhile about the armor and ive always recieved quick replies and great answers to my questions. The plates i recieved feel excellent they're lighter than ESAPIS and have more coverage. Theres a thick protective lip all the way around the edge od the plates to prevent from shattering which i appreciate because i often find myself being pretty rough with my equipment due to the nature of my job. Shipping was quick and it was well packaged
I got these for my wife because she didn’t like the weight of some steel ones I got her. They’re nice and light and look great as well. Definitely confidence inspiring at a great price !!!

Thank you, John!
They are awesome RF3 plates. Fast shipping. Received the plates less than a week after ordering. Best plates for the price. All the YouTube videos helped me in my decision. Will definitely order again.
Thank you Johnny!
These body armor plates arrived quickly and in perfect condition. It is apparent that you’re dealing with a company with a high level of competency and care. This is evident from their level of communication for your order and even down to their packaging and shipping methods. GTS is a very reputable company. They document testing for their plates in a way that I have not experienced with other companies that I researched. This was my second order with GTS and the experience was identical. Great product from a great company!
Thank you!
Great plates. Fit my agilite K Zero perfectly. Wanted a level 4 ceramic armor plate and this was just too good of a deal. The way the design is explained on youtube made me trust these plates over the others.
Nolan, thank you.
Great armor plates for a reasonable price. Definitely will recommend to friends. An awesome American company.
Thank you Brittany!
