A DIY laser pointer using a common 650nm 5V laser diode with copper head and a tact button.
Used the excellent 3AAA flexible case from enif with the necessary cabling.
I used 6x6 tact switch, with also 9mm tip high. Use both contacts on the tact switch in parallel.
Need to design a cap,but thinking how to make one to protect the button from accidental push.
Update 28/4/2020 I designed a simple top cover. Be aware, the design in the freecad file is not to be taken as an example !!!!
Components I used:

The tact switch found in my drawer but the following (with at least 9mm high) will do:
