New York, NY and Austin, TX September 27, 2007 - BACKPACKSHIELD Manufacturing today
announced a series of Level IIIA bullet resistant portable shields for student
backpacks, computer bags, brief cases and other portable cases and bags. Impermeable
to most all handgun bullets the shields are portable and can be moved between
backpacks and bags securing the investment offering years of use.

The patented bullet resistant Dupont KevlarT BackPackShieldT is a light weight
armor panel insert manufactured with the most advanced and lightest aerospace
ballistic composite material available. Manufactured with more than ten layers of
bullet resistant Dupont Kevlartm fabric, which has ten times the tensile strength of
steel, the layers are bound and epoxy impregnated into a sheet less than ½" thick
and weighing less than a typical textbook. Retailing for $249, for a standard size
which fits most student backpacks, the shields are available in more than 10 colors
to allow discretion, or personalization. The BackPackShields come with an
installation kit with removable VelcroT which allows easy removal, washing, and
portability.

"Unlike weaker level II ballistic curtains that are permanently sewn into bags,
BackPackShields are manufacturer to a much higher National Institute of Justice
(N.I.J.) Level IIIA specification." said Kerry Clark, President of BackPackShield
and Defense Contractor and Supplier AMPTEC RESEARCH Corp. "Level IIIA protection
specifications can stop even the hardened full metal jacketed high velocity handgun
bullets including 9 mm and 44 Magnum that pass right through a level II bullet-proof
liner. "

A full line of shields are available which support common laptop computer carrying
cases from most manufacturers including; Dell, HP, Sony and Toshiba. Custom sizes
and shapes can also be ordered. Additional information, prices and specifications
are available on the company's web site at Backpackshield.com.
