In the realm of firearm safety, innovation took center stage with the unveiling of the Biofire Smart Gun last year. Set to revolutionize the industry, this cutting-edge creation promises to redefine gun ownership by integrating advanced biometric features. As pre-orders for the 2025 edition...

Nope. Don't want any potential failure point that will prevent me from defending myself.

 

[budman93]

I think smart guns are dumb.

 

[MaxVO2]

****No.

 

[Growler215]

Hard pass. But I'm sure they'll be mandated soon enough in blue states.

 

[Art3]

Let the legislature's security beta test them first.

 

[Jim12]

No way.

Mechanical failure aside, what if you're bleeding from an attack, have blood on your hands (or lost parts of them) and it doesn't recognize you?

What if a friend or family member tries to help you, but the gun doesn't "know" them?

 

[Brychan]

Thank you no.

When the federal law enforcement agencies adopt them 100%, we can talk.

Uh, no.

Thoughts? Yes. Smart Gun is an oxymoron. The person who tries to push them is a regular old moron. The person who buys one for self defense, also a plain vanilla moron.

As someone In the Business, remind yourself about the incredible level of flak that Engage and Andy took when they looked into getting one on the MD register. Drove Andy to drink and video ranting; I think there were death threats involved as well.

So no, bad idea all around.

Guns are tools. Smart hammers, anyone?

Anyway, there's always a workaround. Check out how today's clever cars are being carjacked by 1 yr ol kids.

Secret Service and Capitol Police should be first in line

Not to mention the Feeb break dancers . . .

I like my guns like I like my strippers. Dumb, and easy to bang.

No... I remember when that was first proposed. Smith and Wesson was "all in" on this gov'ment proposal. Probably promised some exclusive law for supporting the idea. Like when Colt was finagled into supporting the assult wepon ban. It's the reason buying a gun in Maryland requires a lock purchase. This states need to be the first to pass a restriction was because of this before it was discovered that the systems were a complete failure.

I remember some weird movie with two men drawing pistols. Then typing in the request to shoot. The first to receive permission to fire won.

A life safety device (firearm, fire extinguisher, air bag, whatever) must be as simple as possible in order to be as reliable as possible. Introducing failure points in the name of safety...isn't.

Life is for grown ups. A functional world is not an idiot-proof world. People need to get their heads in the game. Example, there are countless Cessnas and Pipers tied up at general aviation airports all over the US that are ripe for the taking. If you can't fly a fookin' plane, don't wander out there, untie it, fire it up, and take it for a joyride. Taxi, takeoff and straight and level flight are the easy phases. Landing without ruining the plane or yourself is the most difficult phase. DON'T BE STUPID!

No, no and, no.

 

[danimalw]

No no no and uh no.... My biometric always keyboard takes more than one swipe.

Here’s my thought
