 | Subject: Shoei to manufacture MP43/1, MP44 and Stg44  Tue 10 May 2011 - 19:41 | |
| Tomio of Shoei e-mailed me with a note asking if I'd post the news below up on our forum. I'm happy to do so, it's great to know that a manufacturer like Shoei acknowledge our forum as a worldwide group of enthusiasts  - Quote :
- We are going to manufacture MP43/1, MP44, and StG44 (WWII last stage type) model gun this time. A manufacture total is 150pcs. Those sale is being planned in the end of June - the beginning of July, 2011. When there is an order, please tell me which type is required. Each number of manufactures is assigned in 150pcs. We will not manufacture most except the number of the orders.
I am looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Thank you always.
Greetinga from Japan.
Best regards,
Tomio

Great news Cerwyn.
It is good to have his acknowledgement!
I emailed him as you suggested - I'm interested in a Stg44 and a firing kit for my FG42!
