    I recall Chris Bartocci of Small Arms Solutions saying that FN America can’t sell their M16A4’s to Non US clients since only Colt and the US Army own their Technical Data Package. Does this apply to these contracts?

    I recall Chris Bartocci of Small arms solutions saying that FN America cannot sell their M16’s to non US clients due to the TDP being owned solely by Colt and the US Army. Does this apply to the FN’s in this contract?
