No. Given all the x-rays I have absorbed, I'm afraid I would break it.

Yes and I carry it everywhere in case i find a pile of geigers and need to count them, you never know.

Yes, two ... for "later".

Mine is in the shop.

No, because I've never wanted to count Geigers.

@ChipmunkErnie if you change your mind, they're under 50 bucks on Amazon.

Who knew?

@NativePortlander1970 do they make 9mm in a depleted uranium round? Hmmmm...

@GerOttman The Russians were reputed to load them in 7.62x39AK and 9x18mm Makarov cartridges.

@NativePortlander1970 that's not for deer!
