The Department of Veterans Affairs is conducting market research through a Sources Sought Notice for the potential procurement of six AR-15 style rifles and associated updated accessories for use by the Coatesville VA Police Department. The notice, issued under solicitation number 36C24426Q0698 and NAICS code 332994, is explicitly not a solicitation, request for quote, or binding procurement action, and no award will result from responses. Vendors are invited to provide information on their products, including detailed technical specifications aligned with MIL-SPEC standards such as 7075-T6 aluminum forgings for receivers, Carpenter No. 158® steel bolt carrier groups with HPT/MPI validation, 11.5-inch chrome-lined barrels with a 1/7 twist, and hardcoat anodized finishes per MIL-A-8625F Type III, Class 2. Respondents must specify whether they are the manufacturer, distributor, or provider of an equivalent solution, confirm the country of origin, and indicate their socioeconomic status including SDVOSB, VOSB, HUBZone, or WOSB certifications. General pricing is requested solely for market research purposes, and vendors must also provide anticipated delivery lead times. Deliveries are expected to be made to the Coatesville VA Medical Center Police at 1400 Blackhorse Hill Road, Coatesville, PA 19320, though the place of performance is listed as the Philadelphia VAMC. All responses are due by June 26, 2026, at 4:00 PM Eastern Time, and must include company name, address, point of contact, phone number, email, and UEI number. The contracting office is the Network Contracting Office 4 located in Pittsburgh, PA, with primary point of contact Tyler Kraft and secondary contact Andrea Aultman-Smith. No formal contract clauses, evaluation factors, inspection criteria, or administrative data are included, as this action is purely for gathering industry capability and pricing information to support future acquisition planning.
