As it's been said, depends on your state and local laws.
The interceptor is OK but I'd recommend the eagle industries scalable plate carrier. It has level 3 body armor (same as IOTV) but it's a lot lighter and more maneuverable and the costs are comparable. It's what we in the Marine Corps are currently using in Afghanistan.
You can buy the stuff depending on state and local laws. there are various levels. level 3 i believe is rated to stop 9mm ball and then it goes up from there. current military is point blank brand level 3 with SAPI insersts. Stands for Small Arms Protctive Inserts. supposed to with stand 2 rounds from 7.62 armor piercing ammo.
How... WHY on earth would any state make it illegal to purchase protective clothing?

Because of things like the Bank of America robbery in California.
Truck driven by illegal immigrant crashed a divider and killed 2 a few years back. Neither are banned.
