Benefits of technology

The present invention is a mobile and maneuverable shield with integrated support for a weapons platform. The shield offers a means of accurate response to armed threats with minimal risk of injury. The platform also provides ammunition storage, allowing for easy reloading and resupply during long engagages. The shield can be used with various weapon systems and is suitable for various purposes such as riot control, home defense, hostage rescue, internal security, and direct action. The shield platform has a means to observe the environment through the protective portion and offers adjustable portions for left-handed and right-handed individuals.

Problems solved by technology

These threats are most hazardous when encountered inside an interior, close-quarters environment wherein an individual may be forced to traverse narrow corridors and passages in full view of an armed individual.
This scenario will often result in the injury or death of an individual without the benefit of either overwhelming firepower, numerical superiority, or specialized urban warfare training.
However, these improvised and carriable means of defense do not necessarily allow a user to respond to a threat, only to defend and evade.
Additionally, the means described above offer either incomplete or immobile cover to a user, even when employed by an individual with specific training regarding effective counters to threats in a specific scenario.
