I can’t even get my $800 cell phone to recognize my fingerprint without trying two or more times.

[rlmorel]

Good God. Only a moron would buy one of these things.

[Seruzawa]

They’ll be sued out of business when the first one fails,

[bunkerhill7]

Never bring a smartgun to a dumbfight.

[qaz123]

As states adopt Constitutional Carry, things like this is DUMB

[seowulf]

A gun is only as smart as it’s user.

[Tell It Right]

"And if the internet is down?"

Chilling to think our Bill of Rights can be nullified by the UN controlling IP address allotments (ICANN).

[larrytown]

Exactly.

Maybe when we’re all herded into Mega City One...

[showme_the_Glory]

Coming soon to a movie-set near you.

[Big Red Badger]

The more I know about Guns,
The more I Love Revolvers!

[nagant]

We mandated smart cars too. Now we can’t buy one.

[ShadowAce]

Next is internet-linked guns, with the federal or state kakistocracy having access to deactivate your gun.

Or worse--keeping them enabled, but only at the range (based on GPS location). The owner has no idea that it's been disabled for every other location--including at home.

[smokingfrog]

Just a sec… I need to take my glove off so I can shoot you Mr. Rapist.

[Paal Gulli]

Not just no, HELL NO!

What if my hands are dirty/bloody?

What if I'm wearing gloves?

What if I have to resort to shooting weak-handed?

What if he gun gets drenched in water/covered in mud?

What if I am felled and my [wife/son/daughter/neighbor/cat] picks up my gun to continue the fight?

How am I supposed to defend myself WHEN (not if ) the batteries are dead?

If "smart" guns become widespread, the gummint WILL invent jammers to prevent them working on their command.

Only stupid people would buy a "smart" gun and any mainstream manufacturer who engages in developing, manufacturing or selling them should be boycotted.

And just like new cars staring in 2025, they can be shut off remotely.

[Basket_of_Deplorables]

Hard Pass.

P.s. get your 80% lowers before the new rule change goes in effect. That’s just a few days. Handguns, too. Glocks...

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

This technology will limit ADs and gun theft. Not bad but...not gonna help with gun violence. Unless we are forced to trade “up”.

[VTenigma]

Smart guns will be keyed to your WiFi covid implant.

[SuperLuminal]

Yep!
Just what one needs in the seconds that your life may hang in the balance...
Don’t worry about those sweaty hands...
Just put your glasses on and fire up the PIN pad...
Hmmm... Was it 1234 or 4231 or 3142 or 1423 or ... (Is that blood leaking from me?)

[Big Red Badger]

Thanks,
I bet Anti Gunners are promoting this Crap.
