Caliber Armor ULTRA SERIES SPECIFICATIONS | RAPID RESPONSE SHIELD:
Caliber Armor Rapid Response RF2 Shield Technical Spec Sheet
The Caliber Armor Rapid Response Shield is designed to be placed near other emergency response tools in businesses, municipalities, schools and places of worship. These easy to use shields can be picked up by law enforcement, security staff or emergency response teams. They can also be handled by other staff members easily in case of emergency situations.
Our industrial handles are bolted into the shield with ballistic grade hardware. Having two hands on the shield enables the user to protect themselves or use the shield as a defense tool as well. The shield can be pivoted to one arm use so that you can use your firearm while still using the shield for coverage.
The shield comes in an unassuming gray color with optional custom wording on the front of the shield for an inconspicuous presentation at your facility.
Coated with polyurea coating for durability and ease of handling.
Available size:
18×20
Weight:
23lbs, 13oz
Designed and tested to a higher caliber. Upgraded hardware ensures the ballistic performance of the shield is consistent throughout the surface. We don’t just say it, we test it! Ultra Shield AND HARDWARE passed and exceeded not only the standard shield ratings, but also tested and exceeded the tougher body armor RF2 threats. We didn’t stop there.. DEA and Special Threats like the M855 A1 and LPS projectiles are no match for our Ultra Series Shields. Others might say, you don’t need .308 coverage, but we think you do, so we test our shields to give you a true Level III++ / RF2 protection level. An extra pound gives you an extensive amount of extra protection.
We invite you to check the competition. Do they test a smaller panel of their ballistic material? Or do they take the time, spend the money and test the entire shield with bolts and hardware attached? That’s the difference with Caliber Armor, we take the extra steps. Your life depends on it!

CALIBER ARMOR BALLISTIC RESISTANCE TESTING PROTOCOL:
All testing was conducted on an indoor range at ambient conditions, in accordance with our instructions and the modified provisions of:
NIJ-STD-0101.07, RF2. Testing was conducted using caliber 7.62 X 39mm Surrogate, 123 grain, 5.56mm, M855 BT, 62 grain, 7.62 X 51mm, M80 Ball, 149 grain, and 5.56mm, M193, 56 grain ammunition. DEA and Special Threat 5.56x45mm M855A1 and 7.62x54R. The sample was tested in accordance with NIJ-STD-0101.07 RF2, DEA and Special Threats in an indoor range with the muzzle of the test barrel mounted 50 feet from the target and positioned to produce 0-degree obliquity impacts. Four infrared velocity light screens, in conjunction with time-based frequency counters, were placed such that projectile velocity was measured 8.25 feet from the target.
Tested and verified to meet ballistic resistance as specified under NIJ Standard- 0101.07 RF2 plus special threat tested. This testing includes the same ballistic testing as the 0101.06 Level III testing. The RF2 testing is new for 2024.
