    TazKristi - a help needed (BG-42 Millie)

    Let me explain the problem. As a big fan of BG-42 I ordered a CF Military w/ BG-42 (the newest sprint run) by Feuerzeugszentrale in Munich. The lady there asked their provider, but the answer was 'No chance, alles ausverkauft (all sold)'. Firstly, I was disappointed. Then I realized that lady said that only about 400 pieces had been produced, and that, perhaps, she is talking about previous CF Military sprint run.
    Dear Kristi, could you tell me more about the availability of the BG-42 Military. It does not sound realistic that all were already ordered/sold.
    Since I am a boring guy who has often asked Sal to produce some blade w/ BG-42, it would be a total irony if I missed one.
    Thank you very much for your kind consideration.

    The BG-42 Military has not shipped yet. They aren't for sale anywhere at this time.

    Also, there are going to be WAY more that 400 of them per the quote below of a comment by Sal in this thread last month

    Franco,
    I believe you are correct. She has the BG-42 Carbon Fiber mixed up with the previous Sprint Run with CPM-S30V. There will be 1500 of the Carbon Fiber Military with BG-42. Carlos is also correct, they haven't started shipping yet. They will very soon though. She shouldn't have any problem getting them and neither should you.

    Hope this helps!

    Kristi
    There is nothing more important than this one day.
