Article touched on the subject at the very end, but the decision was pushed across the finish line just before inauguration. Tremendous waste in the program and would have been easy fodder for Trump.

In the follow on procurement or the contract competition? The M9 is pretty old school and should be replaced. The p320 is a pretty nice side arm at a reasonable price on the civilian market.
Agreed m9 was due and the p320 is a great weapon. But $17mm and two year trials is silly for pistols that were largely already on the market.
