Specifications:
MODEL: GTS-ALUMINA-OA+  and multicurve configuration "MC."
**This model complies with NIJ Standard 0101.06 for Ballistic Resistance of Body Armor.**
**This model complies with NIJ Standard 0101.07 for Ballistic Resistance of Body Armor.**
Latest ballistics testing included all required projectiles to be testing against for the RF2 category.  These tests included the 7.62X51mm M80, 7.62x39mm mild steel core, M193 and M855.  A plate is NOT an RF2 plate if testing and test reports do not indicate successful resistance against ALL of these threats.  Testing
included DROP testing and submerged water testing (see test report for details). Our testing reports (see attached) even include the backing plate used behind the ceramic at the HG2 level, .44 magnum (PE standalone).
Some eBay sellers claim that their plates are NIJ Level III certified because of passing an AK-47 MSC ballistics test OR M855 test (5.56). Remember that the new RF2 category (0101.07) REQUIRES resistance against the 7.62mm x 51mm (M80)
and other threats
. If your ebay seller is not testing all of the RF2 threats - and can prove it... he is not complying with the new 0101.07 standard.  The new standard requires resistance against the following threats:
