What could go wrong ?

Aren't there already laws on the books in a couple of states that go into effect when one of these "smart guns" reaches a certain market penetration? I feel like I remember seeing something about this in New Jersey...

NJ law about this was repealed some time back.

Forgotten Weapons channel has a review here;

Smart gun will put fingerprint, facial recognition technology to work

The Biofire Smart Gun features both built-in fingerprint and infrared facial recognition technology that only permits use by "authorized" individuals, according to the company.

Saw this article today. "The Biofire Smart Gun features built-in fingerprint and infrared facial recognition technology that only permits use by "authorized" individuals, according to the company. Biofire has called it the "first and only biometric firearm on the market."

Not a fan, not a fan. Technology breaks, and depending on the amount of time it takes to 'recognize" the owner, it might be too late.

I'm all for new gun technology and this is at least interesting, as long as it's not forced upon us. https://www.cbsnews.com/texas/news/biofire-smart-gun-kai-kloepfer/

Maybe I'm too cynical, but I think anyone building a "smart" gun is probably anti-2A. There's no way they wouldn't know that the government has been dying for decades to force citizens to buy this crap (looking at you, CA) regardless of how many lives it costs.

There are no solutions for fingerprint readers when wearing gloves, or when you drop them in the mud, or when the battery runs out, etc, etc, etc. Facial recognition on a gun....it is a testament to the limitless supply to human stupidity that anyone could even think about facial recognition on a gun and not break into laughter

And it will fail you if already shot in the face.

Two threads about Biofire merged.

This sort of tech is useless because it's both unreliable and intrudes too much on gun design choices.

Besides, if someone wants or needs this sort of functionality, Magnatrigger exists and is proven reliable. Why make everything so much more complex and unreliable?

Oh, wow. Blast form the past. Magnatrigger. I still like that, for funsies, not real life.

How the History of Gun Safeties Frames the Future of Smart Guns

In light of new technologies there is a push to improve firearms safety with 21st century electronics. But is this really different or new?

Trigger control should be taught to firearm owners not installed/mandated by police state.

All my firearms have trigger control.

Not a fan of the P320?

... waiting for ATF to "interpret" that this has been mandated since 1934 and always part of 2A...

Would a 'Smart' gun have prevented Baldwin killing someone?
