No I have never worn modern armor only kevlar helmet and vests but then again I have never fought Zombie's either . An I don't have to be bit by a rattle snake to know that it's poisonous. Besides only a bomb disposal unit member would wear a full Kevlar body suit. I do know Kevlar is heavy in quality vest's adding ballistic plating/ceramic plating only makes it heavier by some 16-17lbs in some vests.
Most of all I agree with all of you in that practice and familiarity with your weapons and gear for everyone until things become second nature All have valid points but some times you just need to be able to sit back and laugh at yourself and not take things so seriously at times. Just my two cents.
It's Ted.
15 pounds of sapi plate in a zpoc is as useful as a limp dick in a porno. You're better carrying 15 pounds of water. For base defense or "Bugging in" it may be wise to have some plates handy but again... slow gets you dead from the horde.
Also, I appreciate your compliment on my seriousness for survival. If I wanted to joke around I'd be on poofa or an airsoft forum. Unless you're a mental health professional please keep your opinions to yourself or in a post about being too serious.
