Can ccw/chl holders order this?

A
Answered by Brandon, member, from UT, United States, on March 10, 2021

Unfortunately, I can't tell you exactly what documentation will qualify. The easiest thing to do is place the order, your order will be reviewed by our Compliance and Risk Management Teams, and they will reach out to you for any required documentation. In a worst case scenario that your documentation is not acceptable, your order would be cancelled and fully refunded.

Is this the same as the 3M N49 helmet?

A
Answered by Brandon, member, from UT, United States, on March 10, 2021

Yes, this is essentially the same as the 3M N49 helmet. 3M sold their advanced-ballistic protection business (AKA Ceradyne) to Avon in January 2020. Since then, Avon has been manufacturing Ceradyne helmets and armor.
