The Colt Mustang is a line of two lightweight, single-action pocket pistols chambered for the .380 ACP cartridge, produced by Colt's Manufacturing Company.The firearm line was produced from 1983 to 1996 as the Colt Mustang and from 2011 to present the Mustang was reintroduced along with an alloy frame model and an updated polymer frame version, the Colt Mustang XSP.
Singaporean soldier aiming a SAR 21 with laser sight. A laser sight is a device attached or integral to a firearm to aid target acquisition. Unlike optical and iron sights where the user looks through the device to aim at the target, laser sights project a beam onto the target, providing a visual reference point.
The electrical-to-optical conversion efficiency of modern laser technology can be as high as 85%, [8] and off-the-shelf semiconductor diode lasers can have an output efficiency of around 50%. [9] The optical-to-electrical conversion efficiency of a photovoltaic receiver can be over 50% for monochromatic (or laser) light.
Set-up of a self-mixing interferometer with laser diode and monitor photodiode. Self-mixing or back-injection laser interferometry is an interferometric technique in which a part of the light reflected by a vibrating target is reflected into the laser cavity, causing a modulation both in amplitude and in frequency of the emitted optical beam.
Russian President Vladimir Putin on Monday accused the West of pushing Russia to its "red lines" - situations it has publicly made clear it will not tolerate - and said Moscow had been forced to ...

Brooke Shields is sharing a backhanded compliment then-husband Andre Agassi made years ago, saying it made her “spin a bit" at the time.. In chapter 6 of her new book, Brooke Shields Is Not ...
A disk laser configuration presented in 1992 at the SPIE conference. [1] One type of solid-state laser designed for good power scaling is the disk laser (or "active mirror" [1]). Such lasers are believed to be scalable to a power of several kilowatts from a single active element in continuous-wave operation. [2]
