SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[File No. 1-11667]


Issuer Delisting; Notice of Application To Withdraw From Listing 
and Registration; (Armor Holdings, Inc., Common Stock, $.01 Par Value)

May 14, 1999.
    Armor Holdings, Inc. (``Company'') has filed an application with 
the Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission''), pursuant to 
Section 12(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'') and Rule 
12d2-2(d) promulgated thereunder, to withdraw the above specified 
security (``Security'') from listing and registration on the American 
Stock Exchange LLC (``Amex'' or ``Exchange'').
    The reasons cited in the application for withdrawing the Security 
from listing and registration include the following:
    The Security of the Company has been listed for trading on the Amex 
and, pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form 8-A which became 
effective on May 6, 1999, on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. 
(``NYSE''). Trading of the Company's Security on the NYSE commenced at 
the opening of business on May 7, 1999.
    The Company has complied with Rule 18 of the Amex by filing with 
the Exchange a certified copy of preambles and resolutions adopted by 
the Company's Board of Directors authorizing the withdrawal of its 
Security from listing on the Amex and by setting forth in detail to the 
Exchange the reasons for the proposed withdrawal, and the facts in 
support thereof. In making the decision to withdraw its Security from 
listing on the Amex, the Company considered, among other things, the 
direct and indirect costs and the division of the market which might 
result from listing the Security simultaneously on the Amex and the 
NYSE. The Amex has informed the Company that it has no objection to the 
withdrawal of the Company's Security from listing on the Exchange.
    The Company's application relates solely to the withdrawal from 
listing of the Company's Security from the Amex and shall have no 
effect upon the continued listing of the Security on the NYSE. By 
reason of Section 12(b) of the Act and the rules and regulations of the 
Commission thereunder, the Company shall continue to be obligated to 
file reports under Section 13 of the Act with the Commission and the 
NYSE.
    Any interested person may, on or before June 4, 1999, submit by 
letter to the Secretary of the Securities and Exchange Commission, 450 
Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549-0609, facts bearing upon 
whether the application has been made in accordance with the rules of 
the Exchange and what terms, if any, should be imposed by the 
Commission for the protection of investors. The Commission, based on 
the information submitted to it, will issue an order granting the 
application after the date mentioned above, unless the Commission 
determines to order a hearing on the matter.

    For the Commission, by the Division of Market Regulation, 
pursuant to delegated authority.
Jonathan G. Katz,
Secretary.
