RTS Tactical Bulletproof Pillow ($329.99)

Yes, you read that right: a bulletproof pillow. Now, before you dismiss the idea, hear us out. This isn’t a rock-hard pillow; it is actually a very nice memory foam pillow with bullet-resistant properties and features a couple of very low-profile nylon handles on its underside. It’s NIJ-rated level IIIA, which means it will stop handgun threats up to .357 SIG. Can’t reach your AR in time? The RTS Tactical Bullet Proof Pillow might buy you the time you need.

The pillow itself has a large 20×13 soft armor panel sewn into it, and if you didn’t know better, you’d never know the pillow had ballistic properties. Imagine for a second that you hear your door kicked in and the sound of footsteps running toward your bedroom door. Swiping your bulletproof pillow off the bed you were just sleeping on with one hand and your pistol or rifle in another is far faster than any other bullet-resistant solution that we can think of. These events happen far faster than anyone imagines, and we’re now embracing the idea instead of dismissing it.
