Whether you issue a 1099-MISC depends on whether or not the vendor(s) you purchased the equipment from is incorporated.  If they are a corporation, you are not required to issue a 1099-MISC.  If they are a sole proprietor, a partnership, or an LLC, then you should have issued them a 1099-MISC.  That said, whether or not you issue a 1099 does not impact your ability to deduct the costs as business expenses.
