NIGP 93693: Weapon Maintenance and Repair

NIGP 93693 Weapon Maintenance And Repair, an Item code, covers the acquisition, servicing, and disposition of firearms and related law enforcement equipment by state and local public bodies. Recent solicitations show state and local governments buying firearms and tactical gear for law enforcement operations, ammunition and accessories for armed personnel, and repair or maintenance services for weapons systems. The scope extends to the sale or trade of used and confiscated weapons inventories and the establishment of on-call service contracts for emergency and routine weapons-related maintenance. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code include municipal police departments, independent school districts with armed security programs, and consolidated city governments managing law enforcement operations across multiple facilities.

Activity appears concentrated in Texas and Georgia, with Northside Independent School District in San Antonio posting multiple RFPs (RFP2026093 due July 23, 2026, and RFP2026117 due August 20, 2026) for law enforcement firearms, ammunition, tactical gear, and services — the earlier RFP2026093 replaced an expiring contract (RFP 2024-140), and NISD explicitly required all incumbent vendors to respond to the new solicitation or forfeit future business opportunity. Columbus Consolidated Government in Georgia posted two solicitations in August 2026: RFB No. 27-0004 (due September 9, 2026) to sell or trade approximately 480 used and confiscated firearms and upper receivers for credit toward Heckler & Koch MR556 A4 SBR rifles, requiring Federal Firearms Licensee credentials, and RFP 27-0009 (due September 30, 2026) for on-call electrical installation and maintenance services, which included weapons-adjacent building support. Bid security requirements and Federal Firearms Licensee credentials appear standard in firearms transactions, and multi-year contract terms with renewal options are common in this space.
