Hey EL, just stay out of gunshops! Then the rest of us can find the good buys.
By the way don't make fun of my SEEL team we'll come after you some night.

Last time I used one was April '94 and my gun shop has a no food rule so no burritos.

I couldn't find a simple yes or no answer or a specific source saying that it was verboten in the PRNJ. The best thing that I could find was this from www.bulletproofme.com:
Is it legal for civilians to buy Body Armor?
In general, yes - for law-abiding folks. A felony conviction makes possession of Body Armor illegal under federal law and in many states.
We have had civilian clients with many different civilian needs for Body Armor so we understand the need for vests for civilians. Our policy is to only sell to law-abiding adults who have a lawful purpose for Body Armor. (A parent or guardian may buy for a minor with a legitimate need.)
Residents of Connecticut are prohibited from buying Body Armor unless the sale is face to face (or unless the buyer is a police officer, Police Department, or military). We can't ship to Connecticut, or even accept credit cards billed there...
We cannot ship to residents of Connecticut
who are not police or military.
Some states are considering new legislation to prohibit or restrict sales of Body Armor to civilians, e.g., New York. If you are in a state that passes such a law, you would be well advised to make your Body Armor purchase now before it becomes much more expensive and inconvenient, if not prohibited altogether.

I'm 5'4" and at the time of this incident was in the 325ish range... I know, I know. Down to 250 and still descending.
Anywhooo... was in Judo class and had to spar my friend who was 6'5" and in great shape. We were down on the floor in seconds. Low center of gravity and all. I was on top and he was about to get the better of me and send me on my back. I had my bulk positioned over his chest. Well... I just sort of said, "F it!" and let go. My upper body flopped on to his chest and he exhaled, "OOOOOF!" He went just a shade less white than a sheet of onion paper and I was able to pin him.
Rule #1... Hit a fat guy hard and fast, cause what he lacks in stamina, he makes up for in physics.
Rule #2... Don't grapple with a fat guy when you have close to 2 feet of leg range on him.
Rule #3... Fat guys don't have stamina so we aren't looking for a fair fight. We go Medieval fast so we have time to get the Oxygen and run away before you can get back up.
Sadly, to confirm El T's assertion; Most GSC's I've run across are of the porcine shapeliness. But maybe I just notice them more sense they same my homies. Maybe when I drop the rest of my weight I'll start noticing skinny dudes sounding like twits.
