So I just ordered another 1 watt laser off of lazerer for a present, and I forgot to order it without bats. :( Will customs take my laser because of this? Hope they don't. Btw it is coming to U.S.

Well maybe the US are less tight but Australian customs are basterds just luck and if i loose half to me its worth it, its my hobby and its illegal basicaly so there are risks ,well someone in nanny government says its illegal mainly because of the tiny amount of idiots with lasers doing stupid and dangerous things
