    Replacing slides of a pre-existing platform in use for RDS capable slides would very likely be accomplished using a sole-source supplier exemption if a given contract wasn't structured in a well crafted manner that permitted changes.

    Ours is 16 hours, I think 24 would be optimal but after seeing others say they only had a day or a few hours, I'll be happy with the 16

    This is part of the problem I am running into. Command wants a cost basis done before even authorizing going forward with training for the range staff, let alone greenlighting the pilot program I wrote.

    Ammo cost and training time is one of the primary sticking points, equipment costs would be on the individual officer. I pointed out that dry fire training will mitigate some of the ammo issue, but falling on deaf ears it seems.
