As Wikipedia is user edited, i won't trust it as my main source of information... unless you are happy to accept whatever i type here as gospel (and may God help anyone who does )
We in vic got pool legislation updated needed on a few drownings a year, i am sure many people were complaining about the costs on it... but it comes to safety of the children first.
It is estimated that approximately 1,000 children are rushed to Australian emergency departments each year, because they have ingested or inserted button batteries. One child per month sustains a severe injury
If swallowed, coin-sized button batteries can lodge in a child’s oesophagus. An electrical current is immediately triggered by saliva, which causes a chemical reaction that can cause severe burns to the child’s oesophagus and internal organs such as vital arteries, lungs, heart, larynx and spine. Serious injury can occur in as little as two hours and the results can be fatal.

I guess they are not goin to be available for a while until suppliers and retailers work out how to continue within the laws. I’m guessing they are not goin to be banned altogether, just packaged more securely ?

Try and buy an illuminated scope and see how you go. Many have been removed from sale.
SIMPLE AS THAT.

Not really I was looking at over half a dozen illuminated rectal Nightforce scopes today and they have no plans taking them off the shelf either
