Nampa, Idaho (March 2026) – Caracal USA®, a leading U.S.-based manufacturer of small arms for the law enforcement and defense markets, announced today that it has secured a new supply contract with various government agencies in The Bahamas for the CMP9K platform. The award reflects Caracal USA’s continued expansion throughout the Caribbean and highlights the company’s reputation for delivering reliable, modern weapon systems to professional end users.
