Are there any rules for body armor?

Not currently, but I would advise against it. Simple BDUs will work for protection, if you use too much padding, you won't feel lots of hits. It's completely up to you though, but I'll bet people will yell at you a WHOLE lot more.

If by body armor do you mean plate carriers or tac. vests, helmets, etc?

As long as you call your hits your fine wearing anything. "I didn't feel it" excuse only works a few times before its a game killer. Listen for the hits, and when in doubt, take the hit.

I honestly wouldn't wear the plates. That's a bit overkill for airsoft.

I wear plates in my gear. You can hear the rounds hitting it. Never gave me a problem

I wear team Wendy traing plates that are solid rubber, and weigh 5lbs a pice. No problem calling my hits when I hear them.

Next time you see or get a chance to hold a real Sapi plate give it a flick with your finger. It'll work, he'll be able to hear them not as well as fake plates but he'll hear them after getting hit a few times and knowing what to listen for.
You can wear them man, as for the helmet same thing.
Be advised though, with too much gear on... now that will be a different story. Of course they're not gonna tell you that that you can't wear the gear just be advised.
