Depends on state. In Texas, according to Penal Code 46.041, "a person who has been convicted of a felony commits an offense if, after the conviction, the person possesses metal or body armor." == == Protective vest is describe in Common list of controlled goods of EU in article 13 of this list it is sad that crossing of national border is allowed if protective antiballistic vest is on person. So you can cross border with vest on you. As I know in US of America buying of vest is forbidden for persons with criminal record. In many other countries it is allowed to posses vest. ANSWER: Many states make the use of bullet proof armor a penalty enhancer when charging and sentencing a person for the commission of a crime. For instance if you rob a bank with a vest on, you will get more of a sentence than if you did it without one on.
