Least Expensive Option: Trauma Plates

Bulletproof Me sells trauma plates that are NOT designed to stop rifles. They could stop a handgun round or a baseball bat, but definitely not a rifle.

The advantage is that they are inexpensive.

5 inch by 8 inch plates are only $15-40, depending on material type. Combine that with a Blackhawk Lo-Viz plate carrier (also $40) and you've subtle front armor for less than $100.

Alternatively, you can get 8.5 inch by 11 inch Level IIIA plates here for $90, ostensibly for a notebook.
