Glock Solicitation W15QKN-26-R-A071 Questions and Answers

Posted 24 August 2026

Q1. Our firm has strong interest in responding to the subject Notice ID for Glock weapons systems, spare parts and accessories. Just to confirm, is this procurement a sole-source WOSB set-aside? I’m finding mixed info online, saying it is a WOSB Set-Aside, but nothing on the actual SAM.gov page or documents seem to confirm that. Could you help provide more insight?

A1. Reference is made to page 3 of the solicitation which states: The acquisition approach is to solicit on a sole source basis to Glock, Inc. for the Non-Standard Weapons (NSW)/ Commercially available GLOCK weapon systems, Spare parts kits, magazines, and raining.

The awarded contract will require the delivery in accordance with the terms and conditions of the delivery orders awarded under the contract.

Q2. The solicitation states that the Government intends to issue this requirement on a sole-source basis to Glock, Inc. for the G17, G19, G19X, G26, G43X, G17T, and G19T platforms and associated magazines, spare parts, holsters, tools, and training.

Would the Government consider a competing offer proposing FN Herstal/FN America weapon systems that are technically equivalent to the specified Glock platforms, provided the proposed systems meet or exceed the Government's applicable technical, performance, training, logistics, and support requirements?

Proposed FN products would be supplied directly from the manufacturer's production facility or authorized manufacturer warehouse, rather than sourced through secondary commercial distribution. We are evaluating FN platforms that may provide comparable capabilities, together with the associated magazines, spare parts, accessories, tools, and training necessary to support the Government's requirements.

If technically equivalent products from another OEM are acceptable, please confirm whether an offer based on FN Herstal/FN America products may be submitted and evaluated under this solicitation. If alternative OEM products will not be considered, we would appreciate confirmation that offers are restricted specifically to Glock-manufactured products.

A2. Alternative products will not be considered, other products do not meet the Government’s specifications for this effort. The Government specifically requires Glock weapon systems, parts, accessories, contractor spare parts, and training directly from Glock, Inc.

Q3. I did not see holsters on the item list. Will there be a holster request? Our holster fits all of those Glock firearms so you would only need two holsters a left hand and a right hand version. Holster that CBP is using and it passed the rigorous CBP testing. Data can be provided.

A3. Reference is made to Attachment 0003-Glock Pricing Matrix which contains a list of all required weapon systems, training, individual parts and contractor spare part kits.

Q4. Status Reporting

• CDRL A001 states: “The first status report shall be provided within ten (10) business days after contract award. Subsequent reports shall be submitted every two (2) weeks thereafter for the duration of the Delivery Order.”

o We would like to request that status updates be provided monthly rather than every two (2) weeks. Orders will typically have a delivery lead time of 90 to 120 days. As a result, biweekly status updates are unlikely to provide significant changes or meaningful progress to report.

A4. The Government is not amending the requirements of the solicitation at this time.

Offerors may provide any necessary justification for their response in their submitted proposal volume as long as the solutions meet the stated requirements.

Q5. Magazines and Magazine Spare Parts

• We would like to request the removal of Gen3 and Gen4 magazines and magazine spare parts.

o GLOCK is in the process of phasing out Gen3 and Gen4 pistols, parts, and magazines. Gen5 magazines are fully compatible with Gen3 and Gen4, and are standard for Gen6, pistols; therefore, separate Gen3 and Gen4 magazines are not necessary.

A5. The Government is not amending the requirements of the solicitation at this time.

Offerors may provide any necessary justification for their response in their submitted proposal volume as long as the solutions meet the stated requirements.

Q6. Training Requirements

• Does the Army require training for both CONUS and OCONUS locations?

A6. Response: All training will be at CONUS locations.

Q7. G19 and G26 "(M)" Designation

• Attachment 0003 lists a G19 and G26 with an "(M)" designation. What does the "(M)" designator mean?

A7. The (M) denotes the pistol variant configured with Maritime Spring Cups.

Q8. Spare Parts and CSP Considerations The CSPs identified in “Attachment 0003, GLOCK Pricing Matrix v4 Suggested CSP Packages”, reflect the configurations the Army has used in the past. Under the "CSPs" section, several justifications are provided explaining why specific items are not applicable to certain CSPs. Parts:
