Ballistipax® is the manufacturer of the Survivor-1TM Body Armor System, a revolutionary new product that offers users discreet ballistic protection and offensive weapons capabilities combined with a rugged and functional shoulder pack. The Survivor-1TM features a rear static plate carrier and a concealed deployable front full-panel MOLLE plate carrier. Ballistipax’s patented QuickdrawTM deployment action initiates by pulling an ambidextrous plate carrier loop handle at the top of the bag up and over the head and down covering the torso. Elastic Waist Retention Bands attach behind the user’s back to secure the front plate carrier in place. The Survivor-1TM can be configured into near-limitless mission-specific configurations with optional quick-detach IFAK pouches or additional MOLLE panels.

The Survivor-1TM is available in black, navy, and charcoal gray and in with three armor protection levels – Flex Pistol IIIA, Rigid Pistol IIIA(PE), and Rifle III+. The Survivor-1TM will accept most commercially available armor cuts and features internal plate retention rigging straps to secure smaller plates.

This is a very unique product.  What was the inspiration for the product, if you don't mind me asking?

Thanks! We think so too. It was inspired as a way to increase protection and offensive capability for professionals who work in the plainclothes world - clandestine operators, private security & executive protection personnel, or anyone who could benefit from concealed, near-instant firepower with ballistic protection without detection. During and after development it became immediately apparent there was a a civilian market as well, especially as a response to active shooter situations such as schools, hospitals, and other large target rich public spaces.

I'd love to test one on my YouTube channel
...let me clue you in. I am not in danger, Skyler. I AM the danger. A guy opens his door and gets shot and you think that of me? No. I am the one who knocks!

Are you guys the same people from Instagram a few years go?  There’s was a Gif floating around with a guy wearing a backpack reaching over his shoulder and pulling down a front panel with his pistol.

We were at SHOT last year and there was some buzz in the media, but we only had prototypes. That may have been what you saw. The official product release was just this last June, so we're pretty new relatively speaking.

So it'll work with standard armor, but it's only sold with your armor?  How about selling just the backpack without any armor so those of us who already own plates don't have to buy your plates that we don't need or want?
