About this file
This is a Sources Sought Notice for the Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP), a component of the Department of the Treasury, seeking information on specialized weapon systems. The notice details requirements for procuring 275 Full-Size Glock 47 COA Pistols and 55 Mid-Size Glock 45 COA Pistols, both with electronic pistol mounted optics, to be distributed between the Eastern Currency Facility in Washington, DC and Western Currency Facility in Fort Worth, TX. Comprehensive specifications include technical requirements such as 9x19mm NATO caliber, striker-fired action, specific barrel and overall lengths, integrated optic mounting systems, modularity between slide assemblies, and strict safety and reliability standards including NATO qualification compliance and a minimum 20,000-round service life.
The procurement also includes various holster types from manufacturers like Safariland and Bianchi, weapon lights (Streamlight TLR 7-X), and 5 Sirt Training Pistols. Detailed technical specifications cover optic interface requirements, such as factory-milled slides that directly accept closed-emitter duty optics without adapter plates, and specific design elements like a dove tail forward recoil lug and consistent T10 Torix bit mounting. The notice emphasizes brand-specific requirements and is strictly for information gathering, not a formal solicitation, with the aim of understanding market capabilities for potential future procurement.
