Ballistic Armor Co. has built ballistic helmets in White City, Oregon, since 2015. Every Bastion helmet is tested to HG2, backed by a 10-year warranty, and available direct to the agencies that wear it.

View sample certificate →Request a test and evaluation helmet and put it through your own training before your agency commits. See how it fits, how it carries your gear, and how it wears through a full shift.

Choosing a ballistic helmet for an agency means weighing protection, fit, accessory compatibility, lead time, warranty and price, often all in the same budget cycle. Ballistic Armor Co. (BAC) builds the Bastion® family of ballistic helmets for law enforcement, and every part of how we build and sell them is designed to make that decision easier.
BAC is American owned and operated. Every Bastion shell is pressed in the United States with a documented chain of custody, then assembled, inspected and shipped from our shop in White City, Oregon. When an agency buys a BAC helmet, it's buying from the people who build it, with the traceability procurement teams need for their files.
A helmet only protects an officer who's wearing it, so comfort and function aren't extras. Bastion helmets are designed to be worn through a full shift, and they're priced for agency budgets. We sell direct from the manufacturer, without contract markups built into the price, so agencies get agency pricing rather than a list price.
The Bastion shell geometry is built around how officers actually move and work:
Every Bastion helmet is independently lab tested to HG2, as defined in NIJ 0123.00, and lab reports are available on request or during agency procurement. Accessory rails come in three configurations across the Bastion family: no rails on the Bastion Ghost, black resin SlideLock™ rails on the Bastion Patrol, and machined aluminum SlideLock™ or M-LOK™ rails on the Bastion Operator.
Law enforcement is our focus. Agencies can request a test and evaluation helmet before they commit, most orders ship in two to six weeks, and quotes are held for 30 days as standard, extendable up to six months on request to fit budget and approval cycles. Questions about sizing, mounting or warranty go to our team in White City, not a call center.
Every Bastion helmet carries a 10-year warranty against manufacturing defects, with a certificate for your records. Operator aluminum rails are backed by a Use & Abuse lifetime warranty: if a rail breaks in training, we replace it.
American-made helmets, independent HG2 testing, straightforward pricing, fast lead times and long warranties. That's why agencies choose Ballistic Armor Co.
