AR500 fags BTFO forever.

I've been looking into the feasibility of a UHMWPE bodysuit of some kind. Apparently the North Hollywood shootout guys had something like that except with aramids (probably Kevlar). Because of the weight to strength ratio of UHMWPE fibres you'd probably be able to use a plate carrier with it.
Incidentally, it seems that the weave with the best ballistic performance is satin, but satin has the worst abrasive resistance.
