AR500 Armor® Avaliações 31

No issues !! Ordering was easy

First time buyer, first time site user.
Found exactly what I was looking for!
The only complaint I have is I signed up to get the 15% of first time buyer discount code GXP15-LVY8XK09QCLO and when entering it in Mutiple times the site said invalid code, just some feedback for yall

Easy to navigate website, and very informative of products. It would be nice if items would remain in your cart when you leave the site and return to shop later. Otherwise, great!

UPDATE!
Armored Republic reached out and offered to lower the shipping of my three small light items to a more reasonable rate. It is good to see that a large company still cares about good customer service and taking care of smaller orders. I will be happy to continue shopping there. Thank you AR500.

I have been wearing body armor since about 2003. I have worn Point Blank, BAE, UNICOR, Condor, and a few Middle Eastern knock offs. The Testudo is one of the more comfortable and durable vest I have worn short of spending $800 plus for a UNICOR gen 4.

Some folks seem to get frustrated with the long lead times. I can see that, it took almost 4 months for my wife to get her III+ plates. But I believe the quality is worth the wait. I can also say they have provided exceptional follow up customer service. I had a stitch fail out of warranty and they took care of it. Package shipped to the wrong address, they took care of it. Not one time have they been unreasonable, rude, or failed to do right by me and my family.

AR500 Armor is a pro family, pro 2A, and pro America company bottom line.

I'm sure we are all familiar with the expression: You can have quality, you can have it affordably, and you can have it quick, but you cant have all 3.

AR500 focus on Quality and Affordability since when talking about protecting your life, these are most important provided you have given yourself ample time to wait for the product.

I see reviews on here focusing on the time it takes, but not one is mentioning how they had an almost indefinite amount of time to purchase armor, guns and ammo up to covid, and you wait until the nation is teetering on a second civil war before you decide you need to get yours now.

If you are buying guns, ammo, armor, or medical supplies any time after covid hit, guess what? You failed to prepare for what the 2nd amendment was written for way back in 1776 for and have no one to blame but your self.

This had to be one of the worst companies that I have done business with....orderd product...told 4 to 6 week lead time....week 8....work 9....canceled order....product is quality...poor management...would not recommended to friends!

I purchased an Expandable Hydration Pouch and found the product well made and the delivery prompt.

Order volumes are up, I get it. The world is crazier than ever — that's probably an understatement. And COVID sucks. I get it.

Or at least I got it for a month. And then 2 months. And then 3 months. And finally 4 months. At what point, though, does all of that simply become a hollow excuse?

AR500 makes -the best- products out there at okay prices. But with the number of made-in-the-USA competitors out there, this might actually be my last order from AR500, and I still have two plate carriers to go in my goal to have one for everyone in my family (because of just how insane the world is today).

Maybe I'll give them a try again next year, but for now, I think I've lost confidence in their ability to deliver — their competitors are 30 days behind — not 90 — and make comparable products with comparable testing data and comparable features. A couple are even 15%-20% lower cost.

This review is being written while I am frustrated and disappointed, so take my comments and read them with the understanding that they are not necessarily impartial and your experience might be different. Based on others' reviews, it's probably a craps-shoot on whether or not your experience is similar to mine and others'.

Let me start by saying that AR500Armor's products are generally great and I've never had anything negative to say about the products. You can find plenty of youtube videos showing their strength and quality.

The first time I ordered from AR500Armor was rough - shipment took way longer, communication was sporadic at best, and it took a couple of tries to get me everything that I was supposed to receive (stuff was missing from the original shipment and I had to notify them after which it took quite a bit of time to get that stuff shipped, etc.) My initial review for them on another site was 2 stars based on this experience alone.

Since then however, they have grown as a company in a variety of ways. While lead times can still be relatively long, they're very transparent about that now, and communication is much better overall. I've ordered from them about 4 times total now, including for gifts during the holiday season, and they've been quicker and better each time. They also continue to grow their product lines with affordable protection that is of high quality.

This could be a five star review once they get scaled out better and eliminate those often-fluctuating lead times. I would definitely recommend them though for anyone looking for armor and armor accessories.
