DCS licenses do not necessarily refer to final sales; they indicate only that the State Department has granted permission for a possible sale. The State Department estimates that about half of all export licenses it grants result in actual deliveries. A register of licences granted can be found at: Firearms Export Licences
It is assumed the $49,545 (licences) is exceeded by the deliveries ($113,953) due to the latter representing previous years (1996?) orders. (A break-down is detailed below) Sources: Source for "snapshot":
