so no AI cause double stage?-Single-stage trigger that needs to “be free of both perceptible creep, as well as perceptible over-travel” and a “trigger pull [that] shall not measure less than 2.0 pounds, nor more than 3.0 pounds.”

I tried one when they still made LH versions and did not like it at all. Great concept but the execution lacked in many respects.DT also seems to me it’s one of those rifles where either it works for you or it doesn’t. Being a bullpup. I haven’t handled one but I have a Tavor X95 and bullpups don’t fit or work for everyone. Probably a better bet going with a traditional chassis style rifle.
I do think the double stack mags like AI uses are a better bet as well. 10 rounder same size as a AICS style 5 round and can be loaded from the top without having to be removed from the rifle. I’m not sure if it would be needed but if you wanted to quickly swap to an AP or barrier round you could load it through the top while still on the gun. Theoretically
Maybe they travel places where “magnum” calibers are prohibited.The PRC or WM seems redundant, yes.
Pretty sure that is not a thing.Maybe they travel places where “magnum” calibers are prohibited.

Why I believe they will be procured through MHSA.Also, my gut tells me the Secret Service always wanted a full AI rifle but some obscure “But American” rule prevented that.
Methinks said rule is no longer an obstacle.

Alice is awesome.Why I believe they will be procured through MHSA.
Dave Walls was in there a few weeks ago when I stopped by. Usually it's Alice that visits.
That’s the CIA sniper you’re talking about.Well yeah they missed Trump with the shitty ones they have.
Well hell get them some new shit too. I mean we gave the taliban a bunch of new shit why not the alphabeti.That’s the CIA sniper you’re talking about.
Good thought. Solicitation doc stipulates compliance with various laws (page 13 of the USSS solicitation doc), but compliance with the Buy American Act isn't required (page 17, item 48). I'm not going to parse through the statute(s), but I believe this is what was excepted:some obscure “But American” rule prevented that.
Methinks said rule is no longer an obstacle.
In any case, Sec 25.104(b) makes that all bullshit, agencies can probably often draft the requirements so stringently they achieve "nonavailability" from US producers. I understand the left hand thing, but that's the only thing keeping the MSR & MRAD out of this(a) The Buy American statute restricts the purchase of supplies that are not domestic end products. For manufactured end products, the Buy American statute, E.O. 13881, and E.O. 14005 use a two-part test to define a domestic end product.
(1) The article must be manufactured in the United States; and
(2)
(i) Except for an end product that consists wholly or predominantly of iron or steel or a combination of both, the cost of domestic components shall exceed 60 percent of the cost of all the components, except that the percentage will be 65 percent for items delivered in calendar years 2024 through 2028 and 75 percent for items delivered starting in calendar year 2029.
Either that or their preferred supplier helped them draft the specs.I bet the requirements were mostly copy & pasted from another agency's solicitation.
