About this opportunity
The U.S. Army Contracting Command on behalf of the Project Manager Soldier Lethality intends to award a sole-source contract to Barrett Firearms Manufacturing Inc. for the Multi-Role Adaptive Design MK 22 Precision Sniper Rifle, accessories, spare parts, special tools, and training, with responses due by November 5, 2026. The anticipated award is planned for late first quarter to early second quarter of fiscal 2027.
The sole-source justification rests on FAR 6.103-1(c)(2)(i) — substantial duplication of cost to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through competition. Following a Sources Sought notice posted May 14, 2025 that yielded four industry responses, the Army's market research determined that Barrett's MK 22 Precision Sniper Rifle was the only product demonstrating capacity to meet Purchase Description PRFJXNL-F18-0090. The Army assessed that production items from other sources would result in substantial duplication of cost unrecoverable through competition, particularly given the infrequent requirement for this weapon system.
The contemplated vehicle is a five-year, firm fixed-price Requirements contract. This notice does not constitute a Request for Proposals; however, any responsible source believing itself capable of meeting the posted requirements may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation by the closing date. Award determination and discretion to compete remain solely with the Government.
