Most Armor Ballistic Shields deployed and in use among United States Law Enforcement Agencies are not rated to provide any protection against rifle fire.

And those departments that did plan for better protection, paid three times more for this higher level of protection. However, these high-level Polyethylene Level lll Rifle Rated Shields do not provide protection against common street threats such as 5.56mm and 7.62x39mm calibers. These are known to penetrate Polyethylene Level lll armor.

We at RTS Tactical set out to fix this problem. The objective? To produce and provide an effective Rifle rated shield at a price that will leave no one in uniform unprotected. The advantage of the RTS “Mini Shield” is quick deployment and effective protection that satisfies the DEA Body Armor Testing Protocols. This includes the calibers mentioned above.

5.56x45mm 62 gr. M855 (Green Tip)
Russian 7.62x39mm 123 gr. MSC (M43)
