Interesting thoughts on the shield. I've staged a Vertx backpack with a soft armor panel and drill using the back panel pass through to "captain America" it. It's a lot of coverage.

I have the first-spear first on and can confirm the tubes make it fast on if you you stage it correctly. I wish they sold it slick as the fixed panels are design for rifle and medical. I want pistol holster and magazines.

It's interesting to time running from your door to your bedroom to see how little time you have. I look at my house from outside and think were would I breach and have invested in harding doors and windows.

I stage weapons around the house. Door to door salesman can be a good reminder of how little warning you can get.
