Louis,
I do use MM although I do not own a print copy. I find it very helpful for 
evidence of particular words in the papyri and pagan sources. Also very 
helpful is the seven volume set by G.H.R. Horsley from Mcquarie University 
of 'New Documents Illustrating Christianity' and Mandilaras' 'The Verb in 
the Greek Non-Literary Papyri'.
I do not think that the new BDAG picks up everything, but who does? We have 
just returned from Crete where we were astonished at some of the 
inscriptions from 1st century CE in small museums in Western Crete! I don't 
think many of these have been published.

Yours,

Margaret Sim
