chinese brands are known for sourcing junk components or reusing recycled components or factory seconds. What if their next batch of components makes the thing 5 mw or worse?

This is playing with fire, only you're not in danger of harming yourself, you're harming other people.
Bingo.

Testing individual lasers and having them deemed safe is great between you and your buddies, but if Game Control see's a Chinese laser, it's banned, and I don't care how "sciency" you want to get with it, there is no method to test the laser on the field: Like a chrono. If you can't trust your players to shoot under the guidelines, how can you expect people to buy lasers under the guidelines?
