The CNI web site once again shows their classic iconic laser pointers as available after not being offered for a long time/approximately 10 years.
The web site lists GLP-473 as well as PGL-III- M and C 473nm pointers.
Email them asking if ask current price, shipping cost, and delivery time if interested in buying one or more.
In the past the only shipping choice they offered by CNI was FedEx at a high price--$75 which was prohibitive enough to stop a lot of sales other that diehard had to have sales. If it is still FedEx only it has to be higher 10 years later. Not sure how much higher including CNI's markup.

Hi Encap,
If you navigate onto the homepage of CNI, you cant actually click on any page showing the Pens for sale. I emailed them only to be told they cant sell laser pointers due to the FDA since 2015....
If anyone has any luck, let us know!

So then the current CNI web site pointer listings are a legacy type thing as far as USA sales are concerned?
I wonder what Countries they will sell and ship pointers to? Only way to get one you would beto have it shipped to a country they will ship to and then have someone reship it to you, I guess.

Did you ask them specifically if they would sell a 5mW or less GLP pen which is legal to sell to USA Customers?
If they will not sell a complete pointer what about a module that you could put into a host to make a pointer.

Way back on 02/12/2015 CNI was put on the FDA Import Alert 95-4 "red" list for selling high power pointers in violation of FDA regulations. I just checked the list and they are still on it.
See: https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/cms_ia/importalert_254.html

They told me they dont manufacture the GLP or pointers since 2015...so i assume for no country.

I did ask about the GLP modules, and they told me they can not sell internal parts for the GLP or PGL... or they dont want to is my interpretation.

They only offer the current selection of modules inc. the PGL-VI and PGL-H1
