Chase Tactical MTS Level IIIA Ballistic Armor Shield

The Chase Tactical MTS (Mobile Tactical Shield) is a full-size, multi-hit rifle-rated Level III ballistic shield designed for teams running patrol rifles and entry tactics. Its bilateral long-gun cutout supports right- and left-side shoulder transitions from behind cover, making it a strong choice for SWAT, ERT, and contact-team movement in confined structures. Key Specifications Specification Detail Manufacturer Chase Tactical (Made in USA, Berry Compliant) Threat Level NIJ Standard 0108.01 — Level III, stand-alone, multi-hit Coverage Options 24" × 36" or 24" × 48" (special-shape with bilateral rifle cutout) System Weight ~32 lb (approx.) Ballistic Core UHMWPE composite Exterior / Spall Management Polyurea exterior with Rhino Extreme 1150Fr anti-spall coating Viewport 4" × 10" ballistic-rated viewport (per configuration) Typical Lead Time 2–3 weeks from order Product Overview Most rectangular rifle shields create a training problem: they force awkward rifle presentations (over-the-top or one-side-only), which reduces accuracy and increases exposure at the exact moment the team must make decisions. The MTS is shaped to support bilateral long-gun deployment and shoulder transitions while maintaining a protected firing position. Choose the MTS when your mission profile includes structure movement, stack work, and rifle employment from behind cover—especially where teams must work both left- and right-handed around corners and doorways. For Rescue Task Force use where weight and sustained hold-time are the priority, a lighter shield platform may be a better fit. How to Use (Training-Oriented) Validate threat and team role: Use for contact-team / entry roles where rifles are deployed from cover. Work bilateral: Train shoulder transitions using the cutout to maintain cheek weld and sight picture. Movement discipline: Keep the shield as the reference plane for the stack; manage doorways with deliberate pacing. Lighting and comms: Consider an integrated light solution if your SOPs require target identification from the shield position. Comparison Context Versus standard rectangular shields: Built around rifle use from both sides, not a one-side compromise. Versus ultra-light shields: Prioritizes deployment versatility and larger coverage area over minimal weight. 24" × 36" vs 24" × 48": 24" × 36" is better for maneuverability; 24" × 48" maximizes coverage for taller operators and longer holds. FAQ Is this product CoTCCC-recommended? CoTCCC recommendations apply to medical supplies. The MTS is a force-protection platform that can enable earlier care under threat, but it is not a CoTCCC-reviewed medical device. Which size should I choose? Choose 24" × 36" for dynamic movement and tighter interiors. Choose 24" × 48" when maximum coverage is required for barricade-style holds and taller operators. Are there shipping restrictions? Rifle-rated armor restrictions vary by jurisdiction. Confirm your state and local requirements prior to procurement; some states restrict shipment to specific end users.
