Can the laser point be deactivated as it is clearly too dangerous for kids?

No unfortunately, you could however easily remove the button, or rig it to where it could not be pressed down with a drop of superglue.

The 'dart' is rather hard and shoots with quite a bit of power. I don't think it is safe for kids under 10, if then.

It would be like giving a ballpoint pen to a toddler. Dangerous unless constantly monitored.

I don't think so. It's easy for adult to use and it's very sharp, not recommend for children, too dangerous.

Yes you can manually turn it on and off. It does have an on off button. The button goes from off. to on with a solid laser , then from solid to a flashing laser and then to off again.

The flashlight can detach from the laser to use the laser by itself I dont think you can use the flashlight by itself though

I stopped using it after my baby started walking because she hated being held in place at that point...she'd rather be exploring. I don't see why it'd be unsafe until they could pull themselves up and try to get out.

Yes, you can. There is a switch that you use to switch it on or off. And the switch is under a locked cover, so kids can't access it.

No! I looked it up at triabeauty.com and it said that the laser could make a higher risk of skin injury because of the melanin

As with any laser, the directions say to avoid eye contact. You might contact Maxsa to ask them the class of the laser. I use a laser pointer which is very low power and the directions say to avoid eye contact.

This is a very hot piece of equipment. The chance of getting burned is Very possible. I would NOT recommend this for use by a child.

If you feels it's necessary. However, the flashlight will more or less be your aim point on the shotgun so there isn't a real requirement for a laser.Lasers can however be intimidating (so maybe you won't HAVE to shoot, which is the best scenario that could happen!) and useful in hip shot situations, plus they can be fun on the range. So it's entirely up to you. Then again if a shotgun with a flashlight on it pointing at someone doesn't intimidate them I'm not sure a laser will make much difference.

Yes.. One press from either the right or left side turns the laser on and another press turns it off.

On this model you are not supposed to close the bolt, in fact I'd take it out completely when using this. If you close the bolt you risk damaging the laser and the gun.

This is a powerful gun. I have an 11 year old son and am hesitant for him to use without supervision. Could do serious damage to himself others or property especially with pellets. Hope this helps.

There is a small button on the left side of the laser. Because it fits flush on the side of the laser (I imagine to prevent accidental shutoff when making contact with the holster), it does require a deliberate press to turn on/off. I have arthritis in my hands and I do not have any difficulty activating the button. However I would not want to do that in a defensive situation.

Didn't know so I tried it on my own forehead. Reads a few degrees lower, best I could do was about 95 degrees. Don't know if that is an error in the unit or it's actually detecting that my skin surface is cool. BIG ISSUE I would not recommend pointed the laser anywhere near a child's eye.
