Flak Gauntlets are heavy armor pieces that cover the hands and forearms, offering physical damage reduction as part of the flak armor set. Admins use them to outfit players, test combat scenarios, or quickly assemble a full armor loadout on a server.
These gloves spawn as a single item, they do not stack. Use the item ID or GFI code to spawn them via console; since there is no blueprint version, you do not need to adjust the quality or blueprint parameters.
