ACTIVE SHOOTER KITS

RTS Tactical Active Shooter Kits are engineered to close the gap between danger and defense, providing law enforcement, military teams, school resource officers, and first responders with immediate-access body armor and tactical gear built for high-threat, high-pressure environments.

Whether you're responding to a mass casualty event, engaging in covert operations, or preparing for rapid deployment from a patrol vehicle, every tactical active threat kit we build is designed with one goal: to save lives when chaos strikes.

Evolving threats require gear that performs without hesitation. RTS Tactical Active Shooter Response Kits deliver fast, effective protection against handgun, rifle, and armor-piercing rounds with high stopping power.

Trusted by thousands of law enforcement agencies and tactical teams across the country, these kits help reduce response time and dramatically increase officer survivability in active shooter and mass casualty scenarios.

Each kit integrates easily into your current uniform, patrol gear, or vehicle staging protocol, ensuring you’re always mission-ready.

RTS Tactical equips defenders for the moment everything is on the line. Here’s how our kits set the standard in tactical readiness:

RAPID DEPLOYMENT DESIGN

From vehicle seat to vest in seconds. Our plate carriers are streamlined for quick donning and secure fit, exactly what you need for high-stress callouts and unexpected engagements.

ARMOR OPTIONS

• Level IIIA: Lightweight, concealable armor for pistol threats
• Level III+: Special threat-rated steel or composite rifle plates for added coverage
• Level IV Ceramic Armor: Maximum protection against armor-piercing rifle rounds

Choose your armor size, weight class, and response needs. Each armor plate kit is tested for real-world performance.

MODULAR TACTICAL GEAR

Each Active Shooter Kit includes:

• A high-performance plate carrier: Choose from RTS Tactical’s premium, OPSEC, HST quick-release, or Sleek 2.0 designs with MOLLE or laser-cut loadouts for mission adaptability.
• Front and back body armor plates: These models feature NIJ-certified or NIJ-standard ceramic, AR600 steel, or soft armor plates.
• Optional side plates and pouches: Many kits allow 6×8 side plate upgrades with matching pouches for expanded coverage.
• Carrier compatibility for modular loadouts: While pouches for mags, radios, or accessories are not included by default, all carriers are MOLLE/laser-cut ready to accept your preferred mission gear.

Our kits are fully compatible with duty belts, tactical vests, and vehicle-based staging.

We’ve designed these kits alongside tactical operators, law enforcement agencies, and military units. Our efforts have resulted in mission-ready tactical gear that balances protection and ease of use. It’s high-quality gear that has been optimized for use by police officers, private security teams, SROs, and home defenders alike.

Every second saved in an active threat response can save lives. RTS Tactical Active Shooter Kits are designed to improve officer safety under fire, reduce tactical response time, and give you the confidence to move with purpose under pressure.

When school hallways, city streets, or public venues become battlefields, these kits become the defender’s first line of survival, ready in your trunk, locker, or patrol seat.

Seconds also matter after the threat is stopped. Pairing your active shooter response kit with a medical kit gives you the capability to deliver life-saving treatment while awaiting EMS.

Whether you’re facing a lone shooter or organized threat, your gear should never be a limiting factor.
