Millcreek, UT – June 25, 2019   OSS Suppressors LLC has been added to ADS Inc.’s Schedule 84 contract with the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA), the procurement arm of the federal government. The contract allows federal, state and local government entities to quickly and efficiently purchase OSS Suppressors and accessories.

“We are very pleased to have been added to ADS Inc.’s schedule with GSA. Our weapon suppressors and accessories are now available to all federal, state and local law enforcement agencies at pre-negotiated terms and conditions,” said Dennis Cunningham, OSS Director of Government Business Development and Sales. “We’re proud of the government and law enforcement contracts OSS has secured to date, and we will be able to secure even more of them via ADS Inc.’s GSA schedule.”
