Overview

The LBT 6094A is the clone-build heritage carrier. London Bridge Trading produced the 6094-pattern carrier for multiple SOF units throughout the GWOT era, and the 6094A is the current civilian production variant. Build a 2000s-2010s SOF clone — particularly an NSW AOR2 loadout — and the 6094 is the carrier the rest of the kit is built around.

Architecturally the 6094A is traditional: full PALS front and rear, elastic-loop cummerbund-style side panels that accept side plates and PALS pouches, and three-plate compatibility (front, rear, sides). No proprietary placard ecosystem, no laminated chassis, no Reactive Cummerbund — what you see is what the 2010 issued carrier looked like.

The pricing situation is unusual. LBT direct charges $734.99 for new 6094A production. Secondary-market closeout channels — BulletProofME, J5 Rescue, Offbase Supply — frequently list the same SKU at $189-$200 from contract overruns and dealer surplus. For clone builders this is a buying opportunity: secondary-market 6094As in AOR2, Mas Grey, and Coyote routinely surface at sub-$250.

The G3v2 is LBT's modernized variant — same 6094 silhouette in a lightweight 1.4 lb chassis. Buyers who want the LBT pedigree but a modern weight profile should look at the G3v2 instead of the 6094A.

Stocked through Offbase Supply, Legit Kit, eBay, and LBT direct. Not stocked on OpticsPlanet or Brownells.
