Streetwise Rear Guard Ballistic Shield Backpack Insert – Level IIIA, Made in USA

Turn any backpack or laptop bag into a discreet ballistic shield. The Streetwise Rear Guard insert is made in the USA, tested to NIJ Level IIIA standards, and built from flexible UHMWPE—so it’s light enough for daily carry yet tough enough to help stop most common handgun rounds. Available in multiple sizes to fit school packs, messenger bags, and briefcases, it slides into a sleeve and disappears until you need it. Carry it during commutes, travel, or events; when retreat isn’t possible, remove your bag and hold it in front as a shield. The panel contains no metal (airport/TSA-friendly) and is designed for durability with a practical service life measured in years.
