I dont know anything about buying body armor, but if you have the money, could you get it legally? or do you have to jump through some hoops like with guns?

I found out that I could buy the vest itself (minus the Spectra Shield A350 plates) online with no problem, the plates if I had no criminal background. Problem is, it would have cost $600, and that was for a used vest. I didn't have that kind of money (this was a few months after I bought my AR-15), and even if I did, I decided that there were better things to spend it on. Also, I should point out that there are plenty of airsoft retailers that sell vests, but not with real plates. I used to own a Pantac vest with fake (plastic) plates that I got from Red Wolf years ago, which I wore underneath my web gear in skirmishes.

A place around here sells body armour, but you may have to be a LEO to buy one from them

Re: the Closer episode,
Maybe the original script laid out how the boys got their equipment, but got cut down due to time or flow. Maybe a lengthy scene explaining the various loops and taxes involved just got edited down to "we bought them at the mall."

Or maybe the writer is a dumbass who doesn't know the first thing about guns and body armor

Also a possibility.

I'm just saying, A) there are many steps from coming up with plot and getting it in front a camera, and B) it's a 44 minute show, explaining the intricacies of federal gun law may mess up the pacing a bit.
And even if it was mere ignorance, it's ignorance, and not some conspiracy against the 2nd Amendment. Besides, I'm shocked, *shocked,* that the mainstream media would spread misinformation about gun ownership.
