Naval Surface Warfare Center, Crane Division is seeking sources for a shot counter to be used on the Carl Gustaf M3 Recoilless Rifle. Depending on environmental conditions and the type of ammunition used, the Carl Gustaf recoil may range from negative 3.5 ft/lbs to positive 20 ft/lbs. The barrel of the Carl Gustaf is life limited to 1053 rounds. For this reason, the shot counter must maintain an accurate count in all environmental conditions encountered by USSOCOM personnel in the performance of their duties. These duties would include air drop of the weapon and operation of the weapon around various larger and smaller caliber weapons. Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) and/or developmental items will be considered. It would also be preferable if no additional actions are required in the use of the weapon to activate the shot counter. All interested parties will be given the broadest possible latitude for the design of the shot counter consistent with safety, operational,! environmental and performance requirements. All interested parties should submit a description of their product and/or development capabilities. Requested information should be provided no later that 3:00 PM CST, 31 May 2006.
