Pinnacle Armor Inc., would like to extend its sincerest thanks to all the local, state, and Federal agencies, as well as the brave men and women of the United States who proudly wear the Stars and Stripes on foreign soil, that have stood by our company as we endure continued scrutiny from those that would rather see us go away, instead of saving lives. The law enforcement agencies have recently been faced with a difficult decision. With NIJ's recent decision to temporarily suspend our NIJ certification on our SOV 2000 Dragon Skin SOV 2000.1/MIL3AF01, over concerns of our warranty, many law enforcement agencies have called us, expressing their displeasure, that when they have contacted NIJ to inquire about this issue, NIJ has not taken their phone calls and have not returned their messages. If you or your agency has been neglected by NIJ in this manner, Pinnacle Armor needs to hear from you. Please contact us at: Pinnacle Armor Inc. Sincerely, Unprecedented Withdrawal of Certification by NIJ On August 3, 2007 the National Institute of Justice (NIJ) took the unprecedented action of withdrawing certification of the Level 3 SOV 2000.1/MIL3AF01 also know as Dragon Skin® This action was based solely on warranty documentation issues. Pinnacle offers one of the longest body armor warranties in the industry - 6 years. THERE HAS NEVER BEEN AN ON DUTY PERFORMANCE FAILURE OF THE SOV 2000.1/MIL3AF01. Pinnacle is working with the NIJ to provide further documentation related to our warranty. Pinnacle continues to offer a full 6 year warranty on the SOV 2000.1/MIL3AF01. You will be notified immediately when the documentation issue is resolved. In the interim, continue to wear your SOV 2000.1/MIL3AF01 vest and know that it has been tested to and exceeded applicable NIJ standards.
