Die US Army führt eine Marktsichtung bei kompakten MP´s durch:
http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2018/05...tm_campaign=rss ZITAT The US Army’s PEO Soldier – Project Manager Soldier Weapons has issued an Request for Information (RFI) to obtain industry feedback on possible submissions to Sub Compact Weapons (SCW) evaluations. The specification details offered by the Project Manager Soldier Weapons (PMSW) are scant and extremely broad. Describing potential SCWs as being select fire weapons, chambered in 9x19mm and having MIL-STD 1913 rail (Picatinny Rail) space.
The RFI, published 2 May, makes no mention of physical dimensions such as size or weight and instead seeks to cast as wide a net as possible for potential submissions. It does, however, call for suppressors, spares and slings for the weapon (not holsters). Potential future SCW submissions will have to chamber ‘9×19 mm military grade’ ammunition – meaning both M882 ball and the new XM1153 Special Purpose 9mm Round from Winchester. |

ZITAT The purpose of this amendment is to provide answers to the questions that were submitted until August 06, 2018 and provided a revised Attachment 1. 1. QUESTION: Will our offer to the government be disqualified if another company offers a different product from the same manufacturer? ANSWER: No. 2. QUESTION: Will a weapon with a ported barrel and integrated suppressor which meets all of the Go/No Go requirements be accepted? ANSWER: Yes. 3. QUESTION: If our submission has a ported barrel and integrated suppressor designed to be on the weapon at all times, will Testing Goal #3 (Acoustic) be conducted in that configuration? ANSWER: Yes. 4. QUESTION: IF Army would consider a 1 minute extension time, Offeror believes the additional time will be of great benefit to the decision makers and convey a more complete Synopsis of capabilities. ANSWER: The allowable video time will not be extended. 5. QUESTION: Regarding 147gn 9mm ammunition, does the government require performance/demonstration with subsonic or supersonic 147gn 9mm? Or both varieties? ANSWER: The 147 grain 9mm ammunition that the Government will be using for evaluation is subsonic. 6. QUESTION: Is the charging handle a control that will be evaluated underneath the ambidextrous control Go/No Go criteria? ANSWER: The charging handle will not be evaluated for the ambidextrous requirement against the Go/No-Go criteria. 7. Question: Column I beginning on Row14, the Average Price column is averaging the total evaluated amount vs. the unit price average. This is showing an Evaluated Price significantly inflated from what we believe is the intended result. Please confirm if the formula in the Average Price column is correct. Answer: Thank you. The formula is incorrect. An updated version has been uploaded. This does not affect the proposal submission due date. 8. Question: Column B beginning on Row 14, the Suppressors are not listed as part of Follow-On Production items. Please confirm that you do not wish to have Suppressors in the Follow-On Line Items. Answer: Suppressors are not part of follow-on production items. 9. Question: "150 decibels or less unsuppressed measured at a distance of 3 feet perpendicular to the bore" Is this a correct statement or is this intended to be with the suppressor? Depending on the ammunition used, most 9mm ammunition fires at a rating around 160dB. Without some type of internal baffle, this 150dB rating is difficult to achieve without a suppressor. Answer: It is the goal of the program to meet this sound level. This is an evaluated capability during the prototype testing, but it is not part of the Go/No-Go requirements.
