Do airsoft BBs damage real plates?
 

An awkward question.

I understand that steel plates can take rain, sweat, whatever and keep ticking, but I was basically taught to treat my ceramic plates like a newborn child. If I wear my ceramic plates to airsoft, are they going to develop teeny little microfissures or whatnot that may one day cost me the use of a major organ?

You are right to treat your ceramic plates with care, they are delicate. If you are using them for airsoft (and rolling around in the dirt, which I know you're all about, Duffy) I would write them off for any future real steel application (unless you have access to an x-ray machine)


These are good for airsoft. Don't use fake airsoft plates filled with sand or whatever else they put in them.

Properly weighted so they won't damage your back. (And decently priced)

I lurv you, dude.

Do you have a source of XL training plates (11x14") sized correctly?
