60+ Shots. 0 Failures. SPARK™ Shields Work.
We hope children never have to use a SPARK™ Shield.
But we cannot merely hope that SPARK™ Shields will never have to be used.
That’s why we continue to put SPARK™ Shields through test, after test, after test.
SPARK™ Shields Stop 44 Magnum, 9mm, 357 Magnum, 38 Special, & 22 Caliber Bullets
Designed to Meet NIJ Standard 0108.01 Type III-A
Certified independent laboratories have tested the SPARK™ Shield per the National Institute of Justice Type III-A Standard (Standard 0108.01), which says that a single shield panel should be tested and shown to stop five projectiles from a .44 Magnum handgun.
Specifically, testing should use a .44 Magnum Lead SWC Gas Checked bullet because it is the most difficult NIJ Level III-A bullet to stop.
To date, the SPARK™ Shield has stopped everything we’ve shot at it.
No Shield Is Bulletproof. The SPARK™ Shield Is the Next Best Thing.
98% Confidence Level Exceeds Industry Standards
Why?
Because that would require us to shoot each SPARK™ Shield that comes off the factory line. And if we did that, they would all be unusable.
That’s why armor like the SPARK™ Shield is considered “bullet-resistant” instead of “bulletproof.”
The industry standard is to be 90% confident that a product will stop 90% of projectiles.
That standard isn’t good enough for us.
We designed SPARK™ Shields to have a 98% confidence level that they will stop 90% of bullets they’re designed for.
