Myke,

There are still warehouses full of the stuff out there. I used to deal with an old surplus store downtown (that doesn't exist anymore), and they told me they periodically got in crates of new P37 gear from time-to-time. They wouldn't tell me from whom, though. I bought tons of stuff from them, all NOS and all early-dated. Believe me, I'd LOVE to find the source, but it would take someone in government with the right connections. So far no dice. Places like Princess Auto buy it by the pound, not by the unit, everything you can think of.
