American Rebel Freedom Backpack with
Ballistic Protection Panel
Nashville, TN -- August 07, 2018 --
InvestorsHub NewsWire -- American Rebel, Inc. (OTCQB: AREB) is pleased to announce
that its Freedom Backpack line, available in four unique designs,
offer an optional add on purchase of a Ballistic Panel Insert. The
panel is soft armor and fits into a custom sleeve in the Freedom
Large Concealed Carry Backpack.
The protection level of the panel
is NIJ IIIA, which is good for everything up to and including .44
Magnum. NIJ (National Institute of Justice) requires testing
at 25 feet. In addition, we also tested at 5 feet, which is a
greater challenge to the panel and the distance where most
robberies happen.
We tested the following handguns
with zero failures:
1. .38 Special
2. 9mm
3. .40
4. .45
5. .357 SIG
6. .44 Mag
This testing occurs continually
as we receive additional shipments. We test a random sample
of shipments to ensure quality.

George Gulla, Dean of Students
and Head of School Security at Florida Christian School told CNN
the bulletproof panels would add "another level of protection" to
students of the pre-K through grade 12 school "in the event of an
active shooter." https://www.cnn.com/2017/11/07/health/bulletproof-panels-backpacks-trnd/index.html
“American Rebel continues to be
the premier personal protection and personal carry brand of choice
for many. We want to highlight that our backpacks can be used
for ballistic protection as well with the addition of the ballistic
panel. We are very excited about our products and this
product particularly brings a level of security we all deserve as
Americans,” stated Andy Ross, CEO of American Rebel.
It has always been the goal of
American Rebel to design products not only to make carrying your
firearm as safe as possible without any limitation to quick access
or functionality of the firearm, but also for pure personal
protection applications. American Rebel strongly supports the
2nd Amendment and the right to bear arms.
In addition to its currently
available Freedom backpacks that can accommodate its ballistic
panel insert, American Rebel will soon release the Student’s
PROtection Pack series. The PRO Pack will be a great backpack for
students to carry their books and supplies with them to school and
incorporate ballistic panel protection. The PRO Pack will have a
variety of sizes and colors and ballistic panel options. American
Rebel will have the PRO Pack available for purchase by Christmas
2018.
