Last week we told you the U.S. Army had issued a notice announcing a firm fixed price sole source contract for 10 different manufacturers as part of its search for a new Sub Compact Weapon. Now we’re learning that, last Friday, the service amended that original notice by awarding three additional companies contracts for commercially available off-the-shelf SCWs. These are the 3 companies that were added to the notice, along with the model and dollar amount:

New Sub Compact Weapon Contracts

Award Number: W15QKN-18-P-0048
Awardee: Heckler and Koch Defense Inc for HK UMP9 Sub Compact Weapon 
Amount: $10,850.00

Award Number: W15QKN-18-P-0049
Awardee: Angstadt Arms Corporation for Angstadt UDP-9 Sub Compact Weapon
Amount: $15,950.00

Award Number: W15QKN-18-P-0050
Awardee: Noveske Corporation for Noveske Sub Compact Weapon
Amount: $17,200.00

In the Sub Compact Weapon, the Army is looking for a “highly concealable” system that can engage threats with lethal and accurate close range fire and “minimal collateral damage,” the notice states. The weapon is to be select-fire, chambered in 9x19mm, and equipped with a MIL-STD-1913 rail. The notice lays out the reasons for the service’s SCW search:

The acquisition of the SCW is essential in meeting the agency’s requirement to support Product Manager, Individual Weapons mission to assess commercially available off-the-shelf (COTS) SCWs in order to fill a capability gap in lethality and concealability. The SCW are being procured for further evaluation and testing. This evaluation will help to inform current capabilities for the Capability Production Document for the Maneuver Support Center of Excellence. Currently, Personal Security Detail (PSD) military personnel utilize pistols and rifles, however, there is an operational need for additional concealability and lethality. Failure to provide the selected SCW for assessment and evaluation will leave PSD military personnel with a capability gap which can result in increased war fighter casualties and jeopardize the success of the U.S. mission.
