    Help identify this laser please, looks like vintage Surefire

    Identified! It's a model 36 Laser Sight, Surefire responded to a ticket I had sent sometime ago with this picture of the original description. Looks like a classic, not sure what to do with it, I certainly don't have a use for it.

    For what it's worth I measured the voltage across the two contact of the connector on the laser and saw an 18v potential, then measured the current across the contacts (turning on the laser in the process) and saw about 625mA with a slow climb. So at those currents (assuming that's the current...

    Hi all, Noob here to the laser forms, long time CPF fashlight junkie :-) I recently picked up a 80's looking laser sight, I'm fairly sure it's a He Ne tube on account of the size and the fact it runs off two 9v batteries. I am trying to find out more information about this laser, model number...
