Budget estimate

$30,000 – $60,000

The net contract value is likely driven by the price of 31 rifles (≈ $1,200 each), 31 lights (≈ $180 each) and 31 optics (≈ $350 each), totaling about $53,000 for new equipment. After credit for trade‑in of up to 92 used firearms (estimated at $150‑$250 each), the net budget could range from roughly $30,000 to $55,000. Variations depend on the actual trade‑in credit negotiated and any freight or warranty costs.
