Citadel Home Defense Loadout - Stand Your Ground

The Citadel Home Defense Loadout is a fully customizable defensive system built for households, prepared families, and individuals who want layered protection without compromise. Unlike fixed kits, Citadel allows you to configure a complete armor and shield setup tailored to your specific needs, environment, and threat considerations—without unnecessary duplication or bloat.

This system is designed around choice and scalability. Customers select two plate carriers, two complete sets of rifle plates, and one ballistic shield, choosing from our full lineup of materials, protection levels, and configurations. Whether your priority is affordability, mobility, or maximum threat mitigation, Citadel adapts to you.

As a complete system bundle, the Citadel Home Defense Loadout includes 15% system savings applied automatically at checkout.

Restrictions:

  • No shipping to Connecticut or New York
  • No international shipping, including APO/FPO/DPO addresses
  • Felons may not be eligible to own body armor – check local laws if unsure about ownership

Replacement Policy

If you are shot while wearing our armor, we will replace it free of charge. A valid police report is required to process the replacement.

Key Features

The Citadel Home Defense Loadout is built for real-world use—not theoretical loadouts. It allows you to equip multiple users, stage armor for different roles, or build a layered defensive posture without purchasing redundant gear.

 

  • Configure protection for two people

  • Mix armor types based on role or threat

  • Avoid paying for equipment you don’t need

  • Upgrade individual components without replacing the system

 

This is not a pre-packed kit. It’s a defensive architecture.

Specifications

See individual product pages for specifications on threat rating, composition, weight, and more.

Applications

  • Prepared households seeking layered home defense

  • Individuals equipping multiple users

  • Customers who want flexibility without managing separate purchases

  • Buyers who want to balance weight, protection level, and cost intelligently

Shipping Policy

We are committed to getting your tactical gear into your hands quickly and securely — because readiness waits for no one.

Free Shipping

We provide free economy shipping for orders over $299.99. Large armor orders, kits, orders otherwise over 30lbs are generally not eligible for free shipping.

Shipping & Handling | Methods & Carriers

Most orders ship using USPS and UPS.  However, in some cases, orders will arrive via FedEx or an Amazon partner carrier depending on the available network and best rates. At this time, customers cannot select their preferred carrier.

Processing Time

We process orders within 1–2 business days. Once processed, we send tracking information automatically sent via email.

Estimated Delivery Times

•Standard Shipping: 3–5 business days

•Armor Delivery Times & Remote Areas: May take up to 5–7 business days

•Expedited Shipping: Not currently available

Body Armor Shipping Times

Armor often requires additional lead time, depending on stock and manufacturing schedules.  Therefore, please refer to individual product pages for the most accurate updates. Standard turnaround is 5–7 business days.

Discreet Packaging

To protect your privacy and operational security, plain, unmarked packaging is our standard. Whenever possible, no external labels will reference “body armor,” “tactical gear,” or other sensitive terms.

However, orders fulfilled by Amazon warehouses may ship in branded boxes or poly mailers without additional outer packaging. These may display our logo or SKU/product identifiers.

⚠️ Important: This does not apply to body armor shipments.  Any armor orders are packaged discreetly, regardless of fulfillment method.

PO Boxes & Military Addresses

Generally, we do ship to PO Boxes and APO/FPO addresses when allowed by our fulfillment providers. Unfortunately, body armor cannot be shipped to APO/FPO locations, and PO Boxes must be within states that allow armor ownership if purchasing armor.

Body Armor Shipping Restrictions

Due to legal restrictions, we cannot ship body armor to:

•New York (NY)

•Connecticut (CT)

•Any international address

Tracking & Shipping Issues

Your Tracking Number(s) are sent once your order is assigned a label. If your package is delayed, lost, or damaged, please contact our team at Support@InvictusTemplar.com — we’ll follow up with the carrier directly on your behalf.

Shipping Insurance

When we are able to offer optional shipping insurance, it will be available at checkout for select items. For high-value orders, insurance is recommended.

Holiday Notice

During major holidays or peak shopping seasons, delays often occur. We strongly recommend ordering early for time-sensitive items, especially body armor or bundles that temporarily and frequently go out of stock.
