I would rather say "support" or promote the use of retailers who already import or will import eye safe lasers. My miss understanding was thinking they had eye safe visible versions still not importable. I guess there is no eye safe visible versions. That would by default mean just IR Class 1 lasers.

Could be a source of legally imported Class 1 lasers if Rampart may is longer be selling/importing them. Website might not be ready for import I guess as well, have to check with them first. |
The main problem that arises is that these people want to be "seall33treconrangers" with task force Daisy Chain.
The individuals in this community have, in the past, and frequently since then, displayed a blatant disregard and lack of concern in regard to American export restrictions and legalities. It has nothing to do with not being "allowed" to have things, it has to do with not wanting to pay taxes or take the time to do paperwork.
The flip side of the coin is that if these Canadian companies got their shit in order and had us sign a small piece for paper, they could sell us anything they fucking want, as I could legally export from the U.S., and import into Canada, almost any piece of ITAR equipment that is allowed to be owned by a Civilian in the U.S., so long as it is not a prohibited device in Canada.
Anyone who wants to argue, don't bother, I've dealt directly with ITAR both during work and for my own possession on numerous occasions. I've signed the end user agreements and filed the paperwork.
