There’s no real such thing as a true bullet proof vest, unless you enjoy wearing 25lb steel plates; a ceramic armor vest is significantly lighter but are not rated to take more than a few impacts of 7.62mm or even a few 9mm for regular consumer grade restricted for non-military use armor
I saw “bulletproof vest” in the article but missed the “weighted or” part just before it. I did partial research before I posted. Lol.
