The compact Model 19 is one of Glock's most popular handguns. The striker-fired 9mm pistol features a 4-inch barrel and has a standard capacity of 15 rounds, though 17-round magazines are available. The polymer frame features an accessory rail for mounting lights.
New Glock 19s retail for $500 to $600 each. USASOC is paying a base price of about $320 for each Glock 19, the source said.
With that price, the Army would pay about $91.8 million if the service were to buy 287,000 pistols, the quantity requirement outlined in the MHS effort.
The MHS program is projected to cost about $350 million, Army officials maintain.
