Sale of Scrap Deformed Small Arms Fired Cartridge Casings

The Fort Knox Qualified Recycle Program is soliciting bids for the sale of one load of scrap deformed and demilitarized small arms fired cartridge casings. The material consists of approximately 40,186 lbs of .50 caliber, 9 mm, 5.56 mm, and 7.62 mm casings, which have been processed through an ordnance deformer to ensure they are unusable for reloading and unrecognizable from their original condition. The scrap is packaged in approximately 15 gaylord boxes, and the winning bidder must provide a 53 ft. van trailer for transport. Bids are evaluated based on the highest conforming offer price, and the award will be granted to the bidder offering the best price. Interested parties must submit a completed solicitation agreement, including a signature, date, address, telephone number, and initials on each page, to Jamie Daley and Anita Overton by October 21, 2026, at 2:00 PM EST. The winning bidder is required to pick up the materials from the Fort Knox QRP site within ten working days of the award. Payment must be made to the U.S. Treasury Department via bank draft, cashier's check, certified check, traveler's check, or postal money order. Typically, 80% of the award amount is due at pickup, with the remaining balance due within fifteen calendar days, although 100% payment may be required upfront if the bidder cannot be vetted for solvency through SAM, DUNS, or CAGE code verification.
