Had a Shellback Tactical Banshee for years and just recently got around to replacing it with an LBT-6094B. Of course two days after getting it, LBT released the LBT-6094 Quick Release V2. So, I bought that and still need to return the original 6094.
Anyway, swapping over from the old carrier which was black to the new one which is ranger green. Replacing pouches... went with an Esstac triple mag shingle for the front of the carrier. My old carrier and pouches had attachments build into them. I got a set of WTFix straps with the Esstac but they seem too short and like they'll be a pain in the ass to install. What does everyone recommend for an attachment system? |

Hmm so I have a LBT QRCV2 as my own primary duty use carrier and wanted a secondary for the wife. I was thinking of getting the Agilite K19 for about $240 but I could conversely get the LBX0300 for $130 (with military discount) and just add the $30 tube set.
I don't know about LBX's quality and I do know that Agilite makes quality gear. Does anyone else know any quality setups that offer active duty discounts ? |

I’d be looking at this a little more closely if they weren’t skeletonized. The Blaze Defense tubes strike me as installing pretty securely. |

Heck I bet they came off of the same line in China that the other places are selling them for $100. Do you believe that the clips are all made in the states? I don't. The molle parts are probably sewn here, but the plastic parts definitely are not. Assembled locally with globally sourced parts. Go ahead and pay $200 for something that you can get for far less that functions the same. |

Honestly, how many manufactures are making polymer/plastic parts like this, especially being so use specific in the US? Not saying it might not happen, just saying for the small consumer base, how realistic is it? *not defending my purchase of the less expensive parts, genuinely curious |

Always had to cobble together a Camelbak onto your vest and it never worked very well. You'd always have to take your vest off to fill up (or have a buddy top you off) and they'd end up getting caught on shit. |

Thinking about dying the rifle mag pouch with some brown rit dye to get it to match closer. I wish I had side plate capabilities. I’ll post up the wife’s plate carrier tomorrow. It’s more minimalistic than mine. What’s the weight on that white buffalo? |

According to my bathroom scale, I’m 232, put the carrier on and I’m 254 Those plates are heavy, but the carrier distribute the weight well, so it doesn’t feel that bad when running, doing squats, getting up and the like. I should also add that my two pistol mags are 21 round. I have 0 medical supplies on that rig, and I should probably change that. Add that my rifle weighs about 10 pounds, and we’re getting somewhere. I’m really wanting side plates, so it’ll be even heavier with those, I just haven’t figured out how I’m going to add those. The weight is the plates. But they were in my budget, same as the battle steel in my wife’s, but I’m not going to load her down, my goal for hers is for her to get to safety while I put my foot down and stop attackers in their tracks. |

I hear ya, you got to buy what's in your budget. I too, have an LBX 0300. Still waiting on my plates from Kota. I'm going to buy a couple 0300 vests for the woman & kid. I found some older 0300's on ebay for pretty cheap, because they are the old ugly camo that nobody wants.  My plan is the same as yours, get them to safety will covering. Edit: I've seen several video's about the LBT 6094 cummerbund fitting the 0300. All the reviews of the 0300 recommend a CB upgrade. |
