Headquartered in Virginia Beach, Virginia, London Bridge Trading Company, Ltd. (“LBT” for short”) is not, in fact, a trading company. That’s just our name. Our founder and Chairman, Dr. Doug McDougal, started LBT in 1985 after leaving a career as a professor at Eastern Virginia Medical School in Norfolk, Virginia, to pursue his dream of turning an interest in the military into a business that supports the very hard work done by the men and women of the armed forces. Dr. McDougal’s “hobby” of attending trade shows and “trading” in militaria, antique arms and other military paraphernalia – hence our name! – has, today, turned into a company with manufacturing facilities in Virginia Beach, Virginia, and El Paso, Texas, that employs more than 250 people from 18 countries with an average tenure of nearly 10 years.

Features Include:

• Products made in the USA
• Mil-Spec stitching standards, Type E thread
• 1000D Dupont Cordura
• Bartacked stress points and MODULAR webbing

SPACESAVER – BOOTH #701

A626C05C-11C8-4BF3-B28A-125F62A35DFA

Sometimes a storage challenge exists in the market without a standard solution. It is here that Spacesaver can step in and develop new products to alleviate these challenges that our customers face. One example: weapons storage for the military. The U.S. Marine Corps was challenged to store weapons of different sizes, shapes and models. Each time they added a model to their armory, new cabinets and weapons racks had to be designed and installed. Spacesaver partnered with the U.S, Marine Corps to develop an alternative solution. Through research, prototyping and test installations, the Spacesaver Universal Weapon Rack (UWR®) was born. Celebrating its 13-year anniversary in 2013, the UWR has become the standard in weapons storage.

Features Include:

• Manufactured and designed in the USA of heavy-duty steel
• Fully configurable and deployable
• Design tools and resources include color charts, CSI specifications, BIM Objects and sustainability information
