- Description
- The Marine Corps Systems Command, Program Manager for Ammunition, desires the acquisition of the following commercial off-the-shelf, non-developmental items: 1) Cartridge, 9mm FX Blue Marking (DODIC: AA21) Item Description: The Cartridge, 9mm FX Blue Marking (DODIC AA21) is utilized with the M16A2, M4A1 Carbine, Sig Sauer P226 Pistol, M9, and the MP5 Submachine Gun when the weapon is modified with the M9 Special Effects Small Arms Marking System (SESAMS) Adapter Kit. Weapons fitted with the training adapters will operate semi or full automatic simulating live fire. 2) Cartridge, 9mm FX Red Marking (DODIC: AA12) Item Description: The Cartridge, 9mm FX Red Marking (DODIC AA12) is utilized with the M16A2, M4A1 Carbine, Sig Sauer P226 Pistol, M9, and the MP5 Submachine Gun when the weapon is modified with the M9 Special Effects Small Arms Marking System (SESAMS) Adapter Kit. Weapons fitted with the training adapters will operate semi or full automatic simulating live fire. The intended use for these cartridges is to provide enhanced training by allowing force-on-force training versus firing at silhouette on impact. When the round impacts a target, the plastic projectile sheath breaks and detergent marks the target, thus indicating a hit. This cartridge consists of a composite brass/plastic cartridge case loaded with a plastic projectile filled with a fluorescent red, detergent based, non-toxic, washable, inert paste and is propelled by a conventional lead styphnate primer containing approximately .02 grams of GBSE propellant. The overall cartridge length is approximately 1.120 inches, and the weight is approximately 4.30 grams. The North American Industry Classification (NAICS) Code is 332993, Ammunition (Except Small Arms) Manufacturing. All contractors who provide goods/services to the DoD must be registered in the Central Contractor Register (CCR). The solicitation will require online certifications and representations (ORCA), http://orca.bpn.gov. Failure to comply with ORCA registration may make the offeror ineligible for award. Interested parties may identify their interest and capability to meet the requirements by submitting a white paper, technical data for the item, annual production capability data, and past performance data no later than 22 November 2006 to: Commanding General, Marine Corps Systems Command, Attn: PMM 2041, 2200 Lester St., Quantico, VA 22134. Questions may be submitted in writing to the above address, or email carl.bradshaw@usmc.mil. Please refer to Numbered Note 22.
