I went through the import process just to see what it was like when they first passed the law. Bit of a pain as it takes about 6 weeks. Interestingly after waiting that time I was informed that laser collimators were not on the controlled list and mine is 5mw and is very much like a hand held laser. Hmmmmmmmmm, does that give anyone ideas . Only thing is its red but I imagine it would be possible to get one in green.
