This Addendum is being generated to clarify an answer to a question on addendum 2024047B

The Addendum cover sheet should be submitted with your firm’s name, along with all other documentation as requested in the original bid specification. If you have already submitted a bid, you do not need to send this in separately.

All other terms, conditions and specifications remain unchanged.

Question:

The request specifies MAGPUL MBUS 3 BUIS, however does not specify polymer or steel.

Which is preferred as pricing is different for both?

Answer:

Steel is required.

Additional Clarification:

Question:

With regards to the question about the Magpul MBUS 3 sights, Magpul does not make the MBUS 3 in an all metal sight. They are polymer with a steel post. The MBUS Pro sights are the only ones that are all steel.

Answer:

Yes, the frame and mounting is polymer construction, but we would like the integrated steel sights. For clarification, we would like the Magbul MBUS 3 as originally specified (poly with steel inserts). We do not need the Pro all steel version.
