Posted above is a link to a solicitation recently given by the US Secret Service for a 5.56mm, piston operated carbine. There's a list with 61 requirements that went with this solicitation. It calls for a minimum of 30 rifles with a potential maximum of 50 rifles.
Here's a link to a list of the 61 requirements:

I know LWRC is submitting samples and I'm pretty sure HK is as well. It will be interesting to see how the two carbines stack up against one another. I don't know if they intend on replacing their P90's with these carbines, but I figured you guys might find this interesting.
