Are you armed with a laser pointer?

The thing that stops me carrying my Laser around is how do you keep dust from getting on your lens?

Afterall keeping a laser in your top pocket, like a pen would get covered in dust as your pockets collect dust etc in them, so are a dust trap for a laser.
 





I'd be more afraid of it falling out of my pocket and getting damaged. You would probably get sued for blinding someone with it, not to mention they'd probably be taken away by authorities. I'd rather have a gun of course.
 
The paint on my x100 is pealing like crazy so as of a few days ago i dont take it with me, but the button just broke and it's still under warranty so maybe they'll give me a different one if there nice lol.
 
I´am going to get a DX 5-10 mW keychain greeny that will then stay with me and my keys.

That's why you get a laser with a removable front cap so you can clean the lens carefully...or you could fabricate some sort of cap for it to protect it.

My absolute favorite thing about my favorite color laser (yellow) is that it has the removable IR filter. It keeps everything off of the lens with absolute perfection!

IR filters aren't dust resistant :P
 
If the laser has a shutter then you are all set to go. or if it's a DIY you can just buy some of those rubber grips from DX.
 
My Igor has a snug-fitting lens cap =D I don't take it out much however, I'm prone to losing things >.>

Put a simple dust cap on it, take a look on LPF I already posted pictures of this.
 
Here's a pic of what I mean;

Haha, that reminds me, last year i got into a fight in school, and the guy pulled a knife on me... little did he know, that i knew both boxing and Tae Kwon Do, so i twisted his arm, broke it against my shoulder, flipped him over, then got on top of him and started hammering his face with my fists...
Well, that was a bad day for him... Shouldn't have hit my girlfriend...[/quote]
Haha!! I'm actually surprised you and him didn't get in much trouble, my friend beat the crap out of some kid (He basically re-arranged his face... ::)) that picked on him and now he's on probation because of it, I can't believe the kid that pulled out the knife didn't get in huge trouble with the law.

Anyway that must have felt great punching him like that. ;D[/quote]
Haha, you have no idea about how great it felt ;D

wow that is awesome.. i wish i could see that on video. how did you grab him so he didnt stab you? grab his wrist?
hit your girlfriend?? or hit on your girlfriend?

where did you take boxing lessons? you live in Washington as well, so I wasn't sure if it was a place nearby or if it's statewide.

Ya, i grabbed his wrist, and twisted it so that his knife fell out of his hands.
He did both, first he started hitting on her, then he grabbed her butt, when she slapped him, he punched her in the stomach. Then, she told me the day after, and i told him to never come near her again, so he was like "or what"? And i was like "Or i'll break every bone in your body"! So he was like "Oh really"? And he pulled out his knife, so i was like: Ass-kicking time! ;D

I actually lived in Florida before i came to Washington, and i took lessons there, but now, i practice at home daily.

What's the big one? I recognise the Sentorch...

No sorry, the one you "recognize" is actually an A-Laser 660, the larger one you are questioning is a BFG.
Hope that helps, if not; ask away.
