New to lasers need some help repairing mine.

[prontron]

Hi there, I'm pretty new to lasers and just need some help. So a few months ago I purchased a 55mw green laser pointer from laserto.com.

I have since scratched the lens I believe. I have successfully removed the metal threaded ring piece that holds the lens in, and I need to either find a whole replacement that replaces the metal ring and the lens, or just find a lens small enough to fit in the metal ring and pop the old one out and put in the new one in w/ a touch of glue.

Any help of where to find the parts I'm looking for would be greatly appreciated, or if any one is willing to sell me one that would be awesome too.

Thanks for the help,
Prontron

Just checking, are you sure it is actually scratched and not just dirty? If it's only dirty, you should use a lint-free cloth and rubbing alcohol to clean the lens. If it's actually scratched, your best bet is probably to email the seller and ask if they have any spare.
