i considered buying one here before they banned them, but i just don't like the idea of being in possession of what is legally equivalent to a machine gun and could get you 14 years! i'm sure its highly unlikely to be caught in the first place, and even then the police may selectively enforce the law if it's obvious you are using it for astronomy. that's a lot of ifs...
the only reasonable solution for me is a good quality 1mW, or an exemption for astro society members.
