     Pursuant to Rule 13d-2(a) of Regulation 13D-G of the General Rules and
Regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act"),
the undersigned hereby amends its Schedule 13D Statement dated May 10, 1996
(the "Schedule 13D"), relating to the Common Stock, par value $.01 per share,
of Armor Holdings, Inc., (formerly American Body Armor & Equipment Inc.). 
Unless otherwise indicated, all defined terms used herein shall have the same
meaning respectively ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.

Item 3.   SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

     Item 3 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

     RCPI used $3,000,000 of its working capital to purchase a 5% Convertible
Subordinated Note Due April 30, 2001 issued by the Issuer (the "Convertible
Note").  On December 26, 1996, RCPI exercised its right to convert the Note
into 600,000 shares of Common Stock.  None of such funds were borrowed or
otherwise obtained for the specific purpose of acquiring, handling, trading or
voting the Common Stock.  This amount does not include any funds that may be
expended in the future by RCPI to acquire additional shares of the Common
Stock upon exercise of the options reported herein.  It is expected that RCPI
would use working capital to exercise such options. 

     No other Item 2 Person has expended any funds to purchase or otherwise
acquire any shares of the Common Stock.

Item 4.   PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

     RCPI has exercised its right to convert the Note into 600,000 shares of
Common Stock.  RCPI will continue to evaluate its investment in the Common
Stock and its option to purchase 200,000 vested shares pursuant to the Option. 

     Each of the Item 2 Persons may buy or sell shares of the Common Stock it
now owns or hereafter may acquire in the open market or otherwise on such
terms and at such times as such Item 2 Person considers desirable, subject to
any restrictions contained in the Purchase Agreement described in Item 6.  Any
decision by an Item 2 Person to increase, decrease or dispose of its position
in the Common Stock or for RCPI to exercise its option to purchase shares
pursuant to the Option, would be based upon factors including, but not limited
to, the business of the Issuer, the price of the shares of Common Stock, the
terms and conditions of the transaction, prevailing market conditions and
other factors the Item 2 Person may deem material to its investment decision.

     Additionally, Richard Bartlett, the Chairman of Richmont Group and
Managing Director of Richmont Corporation, entities affiliated with RCPI, was
appointed to the Issuer's Board of Directors on May 16, 1996 pursuant to the
Letter Agreement described in Item 6.

     Except as set forth in this Item 4, the Item 2 Persons have no present
plans or proposals which may relate to or would result in any of the actions
specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D under the Act.
