I have been using several red lasers (assisted aiming devices) on pistols and rifles for a couple of decades, but am just getting involved with higher powered hand held portable lasers now.
From the 'not real' lasers but similar interest, I've been a Star Wars nut for almost 40 years as well, and have been involved with the RPF prop builders since 1999 making/collecting static Lightsaber props.
So here I am on LPF after lurking and trying to learn a few things before I joined. I have to be honest and admit it's all a bit overwhelming, and I'm past my prime and for getting all involved in ' from the ground up' building, when so many here and elsewhere have so many offerings. Many also seem quite affordable compared to the past decade or so.
Hopefully I'll be able to ask sensible (at least it will be to me..lol) questions, and add some experiences (as I get some) to the forum.
Lastly but not least, I have on order an SF-501B from Sci-Fi Lasers. Quite a step up from my past experience with firearms lasers, but that's why I am here. :yh:
Thanks...
