I would be interested to know where Bruce gets the idea from that military sales mean that civilian sales are not the main market....

Aside from a few mentions here and there and two smallish contracts I do know of I am unaware of any large procurement contracts needed for that sort of situation.

I suspect most military orders come in through the small procurement government process .... larger contracts such as SOG's SEAL knife contract usually involve trials and a publicly disclosed contract...and there are none to the best of my knowledge which Busse have ... or have bidded for ...

I personally think the civilian/private military sales by individuals make up the majority of the business...but am willing to be educated on this ...
