Award of the most advantageous bid for decommissioned firearms through a store credit system with H&H Shooting Sports pursuant to the Competitive Bidding Process
End
Background:
Trading in old firearms for new weapons is a strategic decision. It helps reduce the cost of buying firearms out of the budget. It allows the police department to stay up to date with the latest firearm technology. Older firearms require more frequent repairs, replacement parts, leading to higher operational costs. Newer weapon systems offer better reliability. This is an efficient way to modernize our weapon systems, ensuring officer readiness, accuracy, safety, while optimizing budget utilization. This will continue to allow the police department to maintain and operate at a high standard
There were two bids for Police Trade-in Buy/Back. H&H bid to give store credit in the amount of $62,900.00 and the second bid, GT Distributors bid the amount of $54,315.00. No other vendors returned a bid. H&H has submitted the most advantageous bid to the City of Broken Arrow.
The store credit will allow the Police Department the purchase of Sionic Rifles, Patrol Rifle Aimpoint Pros, suppressors (manufacturers: Yankee Hill, Huxwrx, Sionics, or SilencerCo), Glock 45 MOS factory packages with Aimpoint Acro and co-witness sights, and accompanying equipment. The Police Department has begun the process of transitioning to the new operating systems. This will aid in the purchase of these times without cost.
This process does not have an impact of the police operational budget.
Cost: ($62,900.00) Store Credit
