Dunno what happened there, it just posted itself
Jen,
Have wondered the same thing myself.
From the Vic Police website
A hand-held battery-operated article commonly known as a "laser pointer" designed or adapted to emit a laser beam with an accessible emission limit of greater than 1mW. Is a prohibited weapon and needs a permit to purchase/own.
Whether a 1mW laser is anygood ?
There is a IIS post here that has some info towards the end.
