Ballistics
Direct Action® is committed to providing a comprehensive range of personal gear – from plate carriers, chest rigs, belts, and pouches to gloves, back panels, backpacks, bags, and finally, ballistic protection elements. The first step in this direction is ballistic inserts, but we are also working on including ballistic shields and helmets in our offerings.
Individual projects, without compromises
Direct Action brand vests are equipped with ballistic inserts, both Soft (Peripherical Ballistic Set: for neck, shoulder, hips and groin protection) and Hard (hard plates). We tailor our personal protection equipment to meet customers' needs and requirements in terms of desired ballistic protection levels, construction, and components used.

- desired level of ballistic protection, - construction, - components used.
